The Land Acknowledgement Streaming Experience (L.A.S.E.)

The Land Acknowledgement Streaming Experience (L.A.S.E.)

The Land Acknowledgement Streaming Experience (L.A.S.E.) shines a unique light on America by looking at the country the way we look at it ourselves—through the window of a moving vehicle—revealing deeper truths that are sometimes paved over. Through a 100 hour continuous video stream of a journey around the outermost roads of the lower 48, viewers will see truck stops and diners and railroad crossings and the endless roadways that connect the towns and hamlets and cities. L.A.S.E. seeks to bring a Native American perspective through these roadways. As L.A.S.E. travel from state to state, they’ll educate viewers on the traditional homelands of Native America through specifically naming each Native American community, landscape, and territory, and their stories as they ride along, looking at the landscape from a car’s window.

Director Jett Garrison

When married couple Mia and Dominick visit their friend Sky for the weekend to meet her new fiancé Jack, he seems uncannily familiar to Dominick. Over magic mushroom tea, the women unpack the tensions in their lifelong intimacy, and the men rediscover their connection, in a far deeper encounter than anyone expected

FUGUE for a Truthful Life

FUGUE for a Truthful Life

Fugue for a Truthful Life is a 30+ minute contemplative documentary that follows Reverend Stephen Wright, author, spiritual teacher, and Member of the British Empire (MBE), on a poetic pilgrimage along the rugged West Coast of Scotland. Through a series of evocative stops at wild coastal landscapes, ancient sacred sites, and quiet village chapels, Rev. Wright engages in a personal and philosophical inquiry into the meaning and pursuit of truth in a world increasingly shaped by disinformation, distraction, and division.

This film is not a lecture, but a lived journey, a cinematic fugue that weaves together landscape, silence, spoken words, and spiritual reflection. The journey invites viewers not only to witness another’s search for truth, but to embark on their own inner exploration of what it means to live a truthful life in an age of chaos.

Frontera

Frontera

Written and Directed by Jack Evans

Starring Wyatt Mortenson and Isabel García

Frontera is an original 25-minute Western short about grief, spirituality and the teachings of the wilderness. Set in 1921, in the aftermath of the Mexican Revolution, it follows an 18-year-old boy who flees a disaster in the United States to be rescued by a community of refugees in Northern Mexico. Recovering from his wounds in an impoverished ejido farm, he struggles to process his own trauma as it compares to the harsh lessons learned by his refugee companions. Filmed during 2024's total solar eclipse in Coahuila, Mexico, Frontera is a spiritually-charged reckoning with the violence of borders and the vital educations of the nonhuman world around us.
