'One Day at Disney': A Story of the Company's Legacy
Have you ever wondered what it's like to work at the greatest arts and entertainment company? This documentary film gives us a look at the people who make the magic.
FOGO FRIO
Fogo Frio is a contemplative meditation on Portuguese cinema and identity, framed by critic Justine Peres Smith’s haunting narration. Two landscapes—a Portuguese family home and Quebec’s Laurentian wilderness—merge in a dreamlike exploration of memory and artistic belonging. At its center, Lloyd burns letters in a fire, perhaps including Justine’s own words ("Dear Lloyd... Yours truly, Justine"). Their ambiguous bond mirrors the film’s tension between tradition and reinvention. Born from the director’s resistance to conventional "Portuguese cinema," Fogo Frio becomes a personal reckoning—a collaborative, improvisational work that challenges the solitary auteur myth. Through fire, silence, and stark beauty, it asks: How do we make art on our own terms?

It addresses the issue of police brutality which rightly has been in the public eye more and more with the unjust deaths caused at the hands of law enforcement.
