Face to Face
2010, Australia, Producer/Director: Michael Rymer; 85 min.
This gripping, thought-provoking drama – based on a play– takes place at a reconciliation session that a young offender has chosen rather than undergo official legal proceedings. It skillfully entwines back-stories, flashbacks and character motivations until the audience's initial moral judgments are almost completely upturned.

The Making of Plus One
2009, USA, Director: Mary McGuckian;
93 min.
In this hilarious look behind the scenes of the independent film industry, we follow a hopeful director and a conniving producer as they skip through a variety of meetings at the Cannes Film Festival, trying to finance their picture. It pokes more than a little fun at the fads and celebrity obsession fueling modern day filmmaking.

Unicorn City
2011, USA, Director: Bryan Lefler;
Producer: Adrian Lefler; 102 min.
In this zany romantic comedy, a selfish gamer is looking for work. To prove his leadership ability to a gaming company seeking a manager, he convinces his friends to follow him into the wilderness where they will set up a gamers' Utopia. Clever and offbeat, the film captures the essence of creating your own reality.
