SMALL TALK
Writer/Director: Becca Gleason
Small Talk is a musical Rom Com in the style Nora Ephron, but with songs. When exes Teddy and June bump into each other on the street, it opens up an emotional can of worms and the prospect that they might get back together, but should they?
LOVE ME DO
Writer: Gaby Dunn
Director: Mercedes Morgan
When a closed-off young woman’s alcoholic father moves in with her fresh off rehab, she must deal with his newly zen, emotional mindset, while confronting the possibility that she’s more like her father than she’d care to admit. LOVE ME DO is a dark comedy about a parent-child relationship where the roles are reversed.
PRESS START
Writers: Evan Beamer, Dave Child
Director: Evan Beamer
When a nerdy gamer Phil unlocks magic that turns his life into a game, he uses the abilities to remake decisions, make better choices and “advance” in his game of life. But now that he’s in the game, Phil will have to face the personal consequences for cheating at life and ultimately the powerful man who created this magic and started Phil down this path.
