Schedule

Opening Night Shorts

7 - 8 PM @ CALS Ron Robinson Theater

We’re kicking off the festival with a powerful and poignant selection of films that reflect the spirit, heart, and complexity of human connection. Our Opening Night Shorts program offers an emotional journey through deeply personal stories—of resilience, legacy, identity, and quiet revolution—told by a bold and diverse group of filmmakers. Then, we transition into our Opening Night Feature, a moving Southern-set drama that explores the delicate bonds of family, acceptance, and change.

Opening Night Feature | I Do This for a Living

8:30 - 10 PM @ CALS Ron Robinson Theater

Jeff, a mechanic and southern family man, navigating the life of his recovering addict son who starts a relationship with a trans girl.
