KALEIDOSCOPE, 7min., USA
Directed by Alex C. Isom
In a world where society is conditioned to only see black and white, those who do see color are mocked and considered deviants. After a tarot reading, Jade starts reconsidering how she looks at the world, and is reminded of the times where she was able to see color. This experimental short film aims to take the topic that has been at the forefront of a lot of people’s minds, gender, and reimagine it in an easier to understand metaphor.

“Prisionera del Lente” tells the story of a typical young woman who enjoys publishing her photos on social networks.

MONA’S NORTH BEACH NOIR, 21min., USA
Directed by Kip Pearson
It’s San Francisco in the 1950s and post war paranoia is at its height. Mitch Marlowe (niece of detective Philip Marlowe) lands in town to start a new life…. passing as a man. She’s brash, confident and very comfortable presenting as a man. What she discovers in North Beach is a vibrant world of artists, criminals, corrupt cops, jazz clubs and the LGBTQ+ shadow world. But is it safe for her anywhere?
