[Ten-Minute] Mr. Stevens longs to reconcile with his son. But he has precious little time left to live, and his son never stops by without a lawyer in tow. Perhaps the starlings pecking at the soft soil will prove more generous company.

[Full-Length] Eddie, an overworked adjunct professor/barista, mentors young working-class men, teaching them to rationally untangle the riddles of their ingrained misogyny. But, as a Tiresias-like aging colleague points out, he is woefully blind to the chaos of sadness and disappointment at the root of his students’ lives – and his own. When Eddie’s newborn son refuses to sleep, his dreams and waking life begin to blur, and his repressed grievances become grand literary ambitions.

[Full-Length] In a Midwest college town, Jacob runs an in-home, sliding-scale counseling practice, partly underwritten by Rex, his well-to-do husband. But when Rex sets his savior complex on Ethan, Jacob’s drug-addicted client, their relationship fractures — then suddenly flourishes — as all three men wrestle their addictions, grievances, false idols, and yearnings for a higher power.

[Full-Length] When an idealistic teacher falls in love with a voice emanating from a security camera mounted deep in the wilderness, he leaves his partner, child, and students in pursuit of his new obsession. But in order to get closer to his muse, he must embark on a new career in her workplace – a tech company specializing in virtual “NatureScapes.” There he discovers the true face of his passions, not in the beautiful woman he imagines, but in what he fears might be lurking in the forest surrounding his office.
