Meeting Gary - Min Dai, Director (Short) 14 min.

A boy's dream of becoming a professional dancer is being ignored by his own parents because they are too busy dealing with their own life struggles.

Will he carry on going and follow his dream?
The Fay - Mark Bonocore, Director (Short) 28 min.
Drawing from ancient Celtic myth and medieval Arthurian romance, 'The Fay' is a tale of sacrificial love, as a young knight is wounded in battle, only to be rescued by the magical arts of a beautiful nymph, who saves his life but then refuses to let him go. Like a pre-Raphaelite painting come to life, 'The Fay' has almost no dialog, but relies on lush cinematography, rich production design, and a lyrical score to present a timeless fable about the joy, the power, and the pain of love.
