"It was a joy to work with Brian on my last two projects. His dedication to the collaborative nature of filmmaking and the creative process greatly increased the dramatic complexity of my films.
Brian has an amazing talent for composing cinematic scores. I look forward to working with him on our next film."
Featuring Golden Globe winner Richard Beymer (Twin Peaks, West Side Story), Jon Stafford (Full Metal Jacket), Summer Stevens and Barbara Weetman, Sadie’s Waltz is a haunting story of grief and transcendence. A young woman trapped in a home destroyed by tragedy suffers her father’s tyrannical abuse until a strange vision inspired by a comic book advertisement shows her an unexpected path to liberation.
Written and directed by Edward R. Tyndall and beautifully photographed by award-winning cinematographer M. Shawn Lewallen, Sadie’s Waltz boldly dramatizes the subconscious in a film where the rational and the irrational collide in a struggle for the survival of a human soul.
In utero during the Cuban Missile Crisis, Tina Highland grew up in the United States obsessed with the prospect of nuclear annihilation. After spending years studying the conflicts that led up to the Cold War, Tina accompanied Russian troops to Chechnya as a photographer while the Cold War was grinding to an agonizing conclusion. Shot by Chechen Rebels while on his journey, Tina narrowly escaped with his life and returned to the United States. During recovery he experienced an epiphany, the conflict he had been chasing all these years was inside him. Deconfliction delves into the mind of an individual struggling to make peace with his conflicted gender identity; a conflict that Tina believes may have been caused by the Cold War itself.

Believe what you will…
Once in every generation, a book appears. A book with the power to enthrall its reader. A book that can inspire greatness and madness. A book that some will do anything to posses, and others will do anything to avoid.
No one knows where it comes from. And no one knows the authors. But to those who know its legend, one thing is certain; Once in every generation… the book contains a new chapter.
Ten people are lost. Three manuscripts are found. One destination awaits.
The lives of writers, agents, booksellers, con-artists, detectives, ghost hunters and a lone hitchhiker are about to converge.
When lesbian detective Abigail Marks teams up with gay guy Michael Dalmar to solve
the disappearance of his twin, Kyle Dalmar, a famed portrait photographer, their
investigation leads them into the Kyle's risque world. With Michael posing as Kyle,
the pair uncover assistants who have designs on their bosses, clients who have an
interest in detectives, and killers who want them stopped. Navigating between identity
and duplicity, Abigail and Michael discover that photos never lie, and two minutes
can mean the difference between life and death. 2 Minutes Later is another sexy
thriller from writer/director Robert Gaston.
Milind Soman Made Me Gay dives into the memory-scape of four South Asian gay men living in Washington DC; one Hindu, one Muslim, one Christian and one Sikh… to reveal how each negotiates his sexual desire with his cultural and religious background. Underneath the nostalgic explorations of life back home lie harsh realities of homophobia and racism in America, and an on-going struggle to find a place of belonging.
