WITH/IN, 8min., USA
Directed by John Dixon
The inner world flows and changes like an oceanic expanse compressed into a series of moments that fracture even as they form. One woman finds herself unfolding into fleeting interactions that careen beyond her imagination; a thousand images of self and other caught in drops and waves and reflected light.

BREATHING ROOM: MOON' MARKED JOURNEY, 13min., USA
Directed by Shinique Smith
From the studio of acclaimed visual artist Shinique Smith, Breathing Room: Moon Marked Journey, is a film meditation on breath, Indigo, and blue as a color that has long inspired Smith’s art practice.

It brings together a sensual experience of fabric, color, breath and light, memory and movement, textiles sound and sculpture.
