Listen To The Force follows Ting and Yun, a young couple living together in their urban apartment. Through a series of everyday moments: preparing juice, cleaning dishes, sharing silence, their story gradually unfolds with the Push Hands practice, where each gesture becomes loaded with meaning. As they circle each other in their small, cozy space, the boundaries between martial arts and daily life dissolve. A simple hand push becomes a test of balance. Without dialogue, their bodies tell the story of contemporary intimacy: the constant recalibration between personal space and shared life, the delicate art of being together while remaining individuals.

Ball Lightning is the true story of a refugee who fled the personal and social effects of Soviet run East Germany after the end of WWII and immigrated to the United States in the 1960s. The story is told through the eyes of the surrogate daughter that she raised after she was forced to give away her own infant daughter as the iron curtain rose. Gusta serves as an example of survival, kindness and the fortitude of human resilience.

The Wrestler is both a coming-of-age story and a call for accountability—spotlighting the urgent need to safeguard young people growing up in algorithm-driven spaces.
