Synopsis
Cast
In SQUARE BLACK, the transparent flakes in the pitch-black box exchange images to create and dismantle a narrative. Light announces its existence with the black speck and flicker of the translucent pieces. The story begins one day when three people who understood the quotes on the city walls gather with their belongings to where the quotes refer. Three strangers exchange greetings and pray five times daily whenever the light enters.

The Tuba Thieves
A spate of robberies in Southern California schools had an oddly specific target: tubas. In this work of creative nonfiction, d/Deaf first-time feature director Alison O’Daniel presents the impact of these crimes from an unexpected angle. The film unfolds mimicking a game of telephone, where sound’s feeble transmissibility is proven as the story bends and weaves to human interpretation and miscommunication. The result is a stunning contribution to cinematic language. O’Daniel has developed a syntax of deafness that offers a complex, overlaid, surprising new texture, which offers a dimensional experience of deafness and reorients the audience auditorily in an unfamiliar and exhilarating way.
