Hover City, 22min., Canada
Directed by Stephen Angelo Puiia
Hover City is a prequel to the 2017 novella, Lucky Duck Cola. Everyone in Hover City is getting high-fived by their favourite celebrity, Blaine The Block Bronson–that is everyone except for his most devoted and loyal fan. This man will stop at nothing to experience, the hero, Block Bronson’s patented high five. Hover City addresses the corrosive nature of narcissism within the individual and throughout society. It is a one man show, starring the producer Stephen Puiia, and is a comedic-horror.

The Newlyweds: Blood At the Altar, 15min., USA
Directed by Lucien Christian Adderley, Richard “Byrd” Wilson
Tia and Akil are good people loved by their friends and family. However, no one believes they should wed because they love hard. They’ve had a dysfunctional, up-and-down relationship since college. They’re crazy about each other, and their friends have seen the chaos that can bring when things aren’t going well. Their love is either SPARKS flying or things BURNING, no in-between. On their big day, we quickly learn that their wedding guests have doubts about their marital future. Despite the looming uncertainty among family and friends, the couple proudly pledges their LIVES to each other. As the devoted couple exchanges vows, things get wild when a catering staff member barges into the kitchen with sick but strange symptoms. After the ceremony, the NEWLYWEDS prepare to make their grand entrance in the ballroom as husband and wife, but instead of applauding guests, they are faced with grueling ZOMBIES.
