Gush and Last Things

A Common Sequence (Country: US; Year: 2023; Director: Mary Helena Clark, Mike Gibisser)

An interconnected look at tradition, colonialism, property, faith, and science, as seen through labour practices that link an endangered salamander, mass-produced apples, and the evolving fields of genomics and machine learning.

World premiere. Documentary

Gush (Country: US; Year: 2023; Director: Foxy Maxy; Writer: Foxy Maxy; Stars: Michel Sayegh, Ruth Fish, Sergio Mejia, Littlebear Sanchez, No'aash Iswut Peltier, Suavitel Paper.)

An embodied rumination of both male and female power, healing and haunting, all within an apocalyptic world. A transformation that courses through unknown terror to untamed collective joy.

World premiere. Fiction

Last Things (Country: US, Portugal, France; Year: 2023; Director: Deborah Stratman; Writer: Deborah Stratman)

Evolution and extinction from the point of view of rocks. A humid take on minerals, where sci-fi meets sci-fact. The geo-biosphere is a place of evolutionary possibility, where humans disappear but life endures.
