In Elizabeth Friedman THE MAN IN THE SUIT (2011, 18 minutes) two unusual people cross paths and form a strange bond. In Roxine Helberg VIRGIN EYES (2011, 23 minutes) a fifteen year old Andrea's love for her father is turned around forever. In Peter Tedone UNSEEN (2012, 24 minutes) a scream in the middle of the night turns the simple, quiet life on an elderly Innkeeper upside down.

Our 8:45 Feature Presentation is Jeff Feldman SOLITARY CHILD. Ricky, a high school baseball star on his way to the major leagues, loses his chance at glory when he gets into a drunk driving accident only weeks before his graduation. Unable to cope with the guilt of maiming and almost killing his girlfriend, he hastily leaves New Jersey for Boston to start a new life, never looking back, until he's forced to run home to save himself from a group of small time hit men. Ricky discovers it's not always possible to go home when he arrives to more problems than he had when he left and a lot of open wounds he can only try to mend.
