Mind the Gap 16min
When the realities of her father's job hit, Sara copes with her
grief the best way she knows how. This is a film about utility -
our desperate desire to be useful, and the jobs we create in
order to feel like we are making a difference. Sara can't
really do anything to help her father. But she can't sit by and
watch him deteriorate. So she creates this job - this returning
of items - as a way to cope. In the long run it's probably not
what's going to save him from his grief, but the alternative is
to sit idly by and that's just not an option. In the pitfalls of life,
sometimes all we can do is mind the gap.

Arranged 27min
Ashok's very traditional Indian parents are pressuring him
into an arranged marriage - with a girl he's never seen or
met before. Shortly before he's supposed to meet his bride-
to-be, he runs into Maya, a fun, free-spirited, and head-
strong girl. They spend the day together and really hit it off -
but Ashok fails to get her number at the end of the night.
And so Ashok embarks on an obsessive search to find Maya,
his last shot at escaping the dreaded arranged marriage.
Will Ashok find Maya before it's too late? Or will he have no
choice but to succumb to his parents' designs?

Triple Dog 90 min
TRIPLE DOG takes place in a small suburban town, where
six high school girls play a game of dare that careens out of
control, altering their lives forever… The popular girl, EVE, is
having her 16th birthday slumber party, when her best
friend, the attention-hungry Chapin, arrives late and the
party starts spinning out of control. Content to entertain
themselves with facials and pedicures, tomboy Chapin
suggests they play a game of dare called, “Triple Dog”. The
rules are simple: everyone gets a dare and gives a dare.
Failure to perform a dare results in one’s head being
shaved. We realize through the events that unfold that
Chapin is holding on to a big secret. No one knows what
happened for sure, but everyone has a strong opinion.
Chapin is aware that some of her friends hold her
responsible for her friend’s apparent suicide, and she is so
defensive about the subject that it’s easy to see why.
Maddened by the rumors that continue to swirl around her,
she runs for the bridge that Stacy St. Clair jumped to her
death from, and before her friends can catch up to her, she
jumps off too. And it is at the moment that Chapin puts her
own life in danger that we finally discover the truth behind
the secret that has haunted her.
