About the Films:
“Cold”, written and directed by Greg Poppa and starring Sugey Cruz, delves into the surreal story of Carmen, a woman who awakens in purgatory with a daunting challenge: repair the broken vehicle in her driveway within 1,000 days or face eternal oblivion. Battling against a relentless environment, isolation, and the decline of her mental and physical health, Carmen’s story is a harrowing exploration of determination and despair. Magical realism and body horror intertwine to create a visually stunning and emotionally charged experience, with moments of lightness brought by an endearing pit-bull mix named Armando, symbolizing the unattainable connections and loss Carmen faces.
“Transient,” written and directed by Chris Ruppert, distributed by Synergetic Films, and starring Greg Poppa and Eric Francis Melaragni, takes audiences on a tense, thrilling ride into the future with David, a tech CEO and inventor shattered by personal tragedy. In his quest to reclaim what was lost, David develops groundbreaking AI that unlocks forgotten memories, drawing him and his business partner, Bill, into a maze of misdirection and obsession. “Transient” is a thought-provoking tale that challenges the boundaries of technology, memory, and the human spirit.
