Title: Ana's Playground
Artist: Eric Howell
Ana’s Playground” reveals a tragic moment when children are brought to the brink of destruction and connection, ideology and humanity. The film opens with a group of children in a non-specific, war-torn country who are listening to a professional match while playing their own soccer game. When their ball goes flying, Ana is unexpectedly forced into a dangerous game of cat and mouse with a sniper. All the characters are listening to a professional game that ebbs and flows as the story progresses. As a result, Ana finds an odd connection with her enemy, and we discover the strengthening and bonding nature of sport and recreation, and specifically the universality of the game of soccer. www.anasplayground.com

Title: Agua Miel: Secrets of the
Agave (Visionaries Media)
Artist: Jamie Lee
Agua Miel will be about creative collaborations
as practices of resistance to inequity and injustice -
socially, materially, ecologically, culturally. It’s
about the imaginary and the real, and how the two come
together in a space that is created in between two powerful
nations - a “third-space” that remains invisible
to much of the world. It’s about reclaiming the
funds of knowledge that have resided and continue to inform
that space. And it’s about water as a force of life
and division and community.

Turner/WB), film archives (UCLA, LOC, BFI), and private
