Queer and Southern God

Southern Gothic, biblical tale, set in rural Tennessee. After being raped, Hank, a trans person, finds himself knocked up and alone. In spite of a lifetime of attempts, Hank can't shake his Christian guilt and is in a constant wrestling match with his choices. We follow Hank through a series of encounters with a quirky cast of characters that can only be found in the South. Mama's too drunk to lend an ear. His older boyfriend - Trampus - is full of condemnation. Honey Lynn, the town glamazon, is a breath of fresh air that offers the most unexpected solution. The film is a 'queer' ride that hopes to increase awareness between cultures and implement discussions between those from different backgrounds in order to implement positive change. It is an illustration of the experience of being raised in the God-fearing South and discovering the difference between spirituality and religion.

Silent Sam

Sam is a 27-year-old music-teaching, sovereign ring-wearing, chanting Buddhist. He is the lead singer of an up-and-coming punk band - but he’s also mute ... at least for most of the time. After two unsuccessful vocal chord operations, Sam spends most of his time in pain and on voice rest. Yet, by communicating silently through writing notes, mouthing words and blowing kisses (one for yes and two for no), he still somehow manages to be the chattiest person in the room. As he sacrifices speaking on a daily basis in order to battle through the excruciating pain of singing, Sam finds himself and his voice at a crossroads - give up on his dreams of music or continue singing and risk remaining silent forever? Silence takes its mental toll and his sense of isolation deepens. Whilst exploring new treatment for his voice, navigating work at a door factory and maintaining his loving relationship with girlfriend Tilly, Sam’s journey leads him to have a radical revelation.

The Call of the Cosmos

The Call of the Cosmos is more than a spectacular exploration of galaxies, stars and the planet we call home. It is also a journey into the heart of God. For through the wonders of outer space we catch extraordinary glimpses of the Lord’s artistry, power, wisdom and compassion as the heavens pour out evidence of his existence every moment of every day. This fascinating film begins with a voyage from Earth to the edge of the observable universe, 45 billion light years away. Then, in a series of visually stunning episodes, we consider the origin and structure of the cosmos and our significance within it…the mysteries of solar eclipses and auroras…an agnostic astronomer’s honest recognition of a supernatural designer…and the convergent revelations of nature and Scripture. The Call of the Cosmos is a celebration of science and the character of God—a remarkable film with an unforgettable message that will touch your mind and heart.

A Thousand Thoughts

Filmmaker Sam Green, in collaboration with writer and editor Joe Bini, takes the stage with the legendary classical-music group Kronos Quartet to create a "live documentary" that chronologically unfolds the quartet's groundbreaking, continent-spanning, multi-decade career. Wildly creative and experimental in form, A Thousand Thoughts is a meditation on music itself-the act of listening closely to music, the experience of feeling music deeply, and the power that music has to change the world. Green narrates the piece live onstage while the Kronos Quartet performs the score, and a rich blend of archival footage, photos, and interviews with members of the Kronos Quartet – as well as longtime collaborators like Philip Glass, Laurie Anderson, Terry Riley, Tanya Tagaq, and Steve Reich – unspools on screen.

BMX Nigeria (part 1)

BMX street is one of the most frequently evolving sports in the world. Fashions come and go as pro riders flit between the contest scene and their latest video release. In Nigeria, things are a bit different. As it is around the globe, riding bikes can be about breaking down walls and allowing an ever-growing group of riders to connect and feed off each other's inspirations and influences. In this film, Starboy, KK Money and S-King lead us through the streets of Lagos, Nigeria's largest city, to illustrate just what a difference riding bikes has made to their lives and what their hopes are for the history of the sport in their town. BMX on the streets of Lagos seems to be a blend of both old- and new-school influences and looks set to head off in its own unique direction as the riders and scene evolves. We can't wait to see just what the future brings for BMX in Nigeria.
