    In a world where deeply rooted biases and misperceptions easily take hold, life can often feel unnerving—a journey that can change for better or worse in a blink of an eye depending on how we see each other. In 10 Seconds, we see through the eyes of Ray and Jimi, who navigate their young adult worlds and what it means to be young Black men in the city. Ray tells the story of a day that he and Jimi will never forget, sharing not only their perspectives, but also the views of the police they encounter. Learn More

    Two neighbors live side-by-side in Texas. A low fence separates their gardens, but much more divides them. One grows flowers; the other raises vegetables. One was born in the U.S., the other in Mexico. One speaks English, the other Spanish. Their differences have kept them so far apart that even the arrival of a caterpillar causes disagreement—until the resulting mariposa/butterfly, and its eventual departure, unites them in wonder, sadness and a new understanding of the beautiful world they share.

    Ten-year-old Memo learns that his beloved Abuelita has died. Grieving and dismissed by his mother and sister, Memo tries to find Abuelita’s hidden stash of candy, but instead is led by Abuelita’s spirit on a journey through her memories as a girl in Mexico and a young immigrant in the United States. Dulce draws on magical realism and slapstick comedy to tell a story about cultural identity, intergenerational ties and learning how to say goodbye. Learn More
