Features
A Boy Named Jason
Vince Fesalbon
A teenage boy struggles with his gay feelings, and winds up finding true love in the end.
Dominoes
Cole Drumb
An emotional poem to young urbanites looking for love, Cole Drumb’s ambitious Dominoes is a reflection of Seattle’s melancholy nightlife that bounces its college-age characters through the scary, abrasive politics of dating. Drumb’s effort boasts a Robert Altman-sized canvas of actors and was shot on digital video. Full of profane, tenacious exchanges of dialogue and sexual encounters, this concoction is funny-sweet in a Diner kinda way, with the bitter aftertaste of more scalding melodramas like Your Friends and Neighbors.

Tony Leahy
Dens was a nerd in high school, but now that he's a hipster film student in the big city of Seattle he returns to his rural hometown to seek revenge upon his former tormentors by making a scathing documentary about them. He learns the hard way that things rarely go as planned, especially when generic beer, Trans-Ams and big hair are involved. Dens' documentary begins at his cousin Bob's trailer. Every summer Bob has a "kick ass bash" where all his friends come over to his trailer to barbecue and get drunk.
