Streaming in June:

Legend of Fry-Roti: Rise of the Dough: Aria, (Navajo and Bengali), is a successful Human Resources professional and yearns for a peaceful and stress-free day off. However, her plans are derailed when her two feuding aunties unexpectedly show up.

As if that wasn’t bad enough, Aria’s routine HR module forces her to confront the dreaded question: ‘Pick one ethnicity.’ It’s met with an email blast reminder that she must attend the mandatory social outing with a dish for the potluck with her HR team at the Atlanta Braves game. Yeah, the one with the racist Native American mascot. Also, who does a potluck in a party suite?! UGH her day couldn’t get any worse…

Lumbeeland: A narrative short film about Dollar, a single father and drug dealer who must prove his worth to his mother and young daughter. A tragic tale exploring how we hurt the ones we love, even when we want to protect them – that anger and greed lead us to betray those we are closest to, even ourselves.
