Our Best Bear

A lo-fi experimental short with its own sense of humor filled with strange rhythms and eccentric characters.

Playthings

Like most children, Mason (Sam Rogers) is convinced that there’s a monster living in his closet. At first frightened, Mason soon discovers that the monster–named Tyr–simply wants to play with him, and a fast friendship develops between the two. But what was once innocent soon turns destructive as Mason–now a young man (Danny Dobyns)–fears that his relationship with Tyr is beginning to encroach upon his personal life… and potentially his sanity.

A Matter of Time

A scientist turns on her latest invention for the first time only to discover that appearances are always more than they seem.

The Veteran Hour

Three different hours from a Veteran’s life.

Helio

One worker sparks an uprising when he attempts to break free of his dystopian underworld.
