MOVE WHEN THE SPIRIT SAYS MOVE

Dorothy Foreman Cotton was a bold highly effective civil rights leader, who educated thousands in their citizenship rights and inspired generations of activists with her powerful freedom songs. The only woman on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s executive staff, Dorothy was a charismatic, courageous and consistently overlooked key player in the Civil Rights Movement.


Directed and produced by local filmmakers Ry Ferro and Deborah C. Hoard.

A wildlife volunteer on an uninhabited island off the British coast descends into a terrifying madness that challenges her grip on reality and pushes her into a living nightmare. Evoking the feeling of discovering a reel of never-before-seen celluloid unspooling in a haunted movie palace, this provocative and masterful vision of horror asserts Mark Jenkin as one of the U.K.’s most exciting and singular filmmakers.

Director / Writer: Mark Jenkin

Cast: Mary Woodvine, Edward Rowe, Flo Crowe

The film follows Inez, who kidnaps six-year-old Terry from the foster care system. Mother and son set out to reclaim their home, as well as their identity and stability, in a rapidly changing NYC.



"This is a tough, beautiful, honest and bracingly hopeful movie about mutual care and unconditional love, with a transformative and indelible performance at its core." — Ann Hornaday, Washington Post

Director / Writer: A.V. Rockwell

Cast: Teyana Taylor, William Catlett, Josiah Cross, Adriane Lenox

A wildly inventive new comedy from Quentin Dupieux, SMOKING CAUSES COUGHING follows the misadventures of a team of five superheroes known as the Tobacco Force. After a devastating battle against a diabolical giant turtle, the Tobacco Force is sent on a mandatory week-long retreat to strengthen their decaying group cohesion.


"The director’s stories know how to take extreme violence and turn it into sarcasm and comedy, often using inanimate objects to reflect humanity’s shortcomings." — Valerie Complex, Deadline

Director / Writer:

Quentin Dupieux
