Hidden in This Picture
By Aaron Sorkin
Directed by Daniel Andres Blanco
It’s Robert’s first time directing a full-length film and he’s at the home stretch, about to capture the Oscar-winning closing shot. But first he has to contend with an ego-centric writer, his money-managing producer, a bumbling assistant, and a herd of wayward cows all threatening to bring his creative genius crashing down. From the brain of Aaron Sorkin, writer of A Few Good Men and The West Wing, comes a delightful satire about the joys and realities of movie-making.

The Last Nickel
By Jane Shepard
Directed by Emma Johnson
It’s another long night for Jamie, with an obnoxious sister and a trio of sardonic puppets to keep her awake. Tinged with fun and sisterly nostalgia, the merriment inevitably comes to focus on the cause of Jamie's self-destruction, forcing her to reckon with the loss that has brought her to the edge. Equal parts theatrical, funny, and touching.
