I Am Fine Directed by Osi Wald
Animated diary entries from 2022-2025 - years of protest and war. Through loops of domesticroutines and dreams extracted from abstract stains, I create fragile bubbles of sanity, attempting toexist within a fracturing reality without normalizing the horror, questioning what lies behind theautomatic answer, 'I am fine'.

Ball Lightening Directed by Catriona Trina Baker
Ball Lightning is the true story of a refugee who fled the personal and social effects of Soviet-run East Germany after the end of WWII and immigrated to the United States in the 1960s, told through the eyes of the surrogate daughter she raised after being forced to give away her own infant daughter as the iron curtain rose. The film is an intergenerational love story and is dedicated to her lost daughter, Esther, a reminder that the children separated from families because of war are never forgotten by those who love them.
