A beautiful actress struggles to connect with her disfigured co-star on the set of a European auteur's English-language debut.

A woman and her ex-boyfriend reconnect at the vet after their dog gets sick, as a new boyfriend experiences jealousy. “WILK,” directed by Peg, is an experimental comedy with its own absurd cinematic language and esoteric scene-building. Joseph watches from the car as his girlfriend, Tallie, is consoled by her ex outside the vet (while Joseph’s car has a penis spray-painted on it). Later at home, Joseph still feels antsy about Tallie’s reconnection with her ex, as he’s offered a glass of ‘WILK’ (wine+milk) soon claimed by Tallie’s roommate, an eccentric music producer. Having learned what the titular WILK means, we can now cut to a boxing match between a milk mascot and a wine mascot while a hip hop track plays. Delivered as a medley of bizarre shifts and barely discernible story beats, the film is intriguingly chaotic and one-of-a-kind.

Lev lives above the teaming New York City streets he’s grown tired of. Stuart drives a flower delivery truck that makes its noisy rounds each morning below.

Lev is sedated by her beauty, and upon discovering she actually exists, he pursues a correspondence with her – hosted by Stuart.

Concerning three groups of children from disparate upbringings, A Black Hole is a Black Hole in the Ground intimately depicts the strange, ephemeral realities that arise on evenings of play, when dimensions of space and time, not fully cemented by adulthood, begin to dissolve. Parking lots, hen houses, and brownstone apartments become the dwellings of many strange creatures; coyotes are rendered forest spirits, neighbors as martians, and night crawlers as flesh-eating meteorite worms. Employing sci-fi, documentary and ethnography techniques, a state of mind particular to early youth is sublimated - weight is lent to shadows as vast as space, ripe with discoveries both minuscule and immense.

Jenny Secoma is an exorcist with not enough jobs, too many bills, and a liver that could use a day off. She’s not feeling too well at the moment. Paranoia and terror hound her at every corner. Sleepless nights, restless days, and the incessant pressure of an unceasing gaze. Something… or someone… is watching her. What could it be?

Due to mysterious circumstances, two sisters are left with an estranged relative in a rural town that seems out of place, out of time, and full of unspoken secrets. Part fiction, part documentary, the story intertwines itself into the real history of the Elmira Flood of 1978, recounted by those who lived it and continue to experience its effects to this day.

Based on the performance manifesto, Your Healing is Killing Me, by Virginia Grise, Bryant and Livingston's video was produced as part of the workshop in the 2018 ImageTextImage program.

Sophia Feuer’s film brings to light sensory, observational details from The Space Lady’s present life in rural Colorado—namely, her struggle to reclaim the music from the pain that encompasses it—while reflecting on her past.
