Piper is an anti-romantic caught falling for the girl behind the snack counter at her favorite movie theater. As Piper struggles to resist love at first sight, she must battle her way through a Western shoot-out and an Alien Invasion in the lobby of the theater, before finally learning to accept the romance of it all -- and the romantic comedy genre itself.

After a tragic accident involving possibly fatal weed, stoner gig worker Marlo teams up with her journalist ex-girlfriend Julia to trace it back to the source and unravel a corporate conspiracy.

Penelope is a darkly comedic short about an undead misfit with “female Beetlejuice” energy who wakes up on her 666th day with one job: build an army of the undead to make her father proud. But after sleeping through most of her mission, she scrambles to recruit anyone she can—an angry neighbor, a pair of stoners, and a morose boy next door she just might have a crush on. When her father arrives, unimpressed with her ragtag recruits, Penelope is forced to face the crushing weight of his expectations. Equal parts creepy and coming of age, Penelope explores the absurd lengths we go to for approval—and the universal struggle of never feeling good enough.
