Morkovcha [Korean Carrot Salad]  | Director: Lidiya Kan
A story of ethnic Koreans from Russia and the post-Soviet territories who endure a century-long journey through Central Asia to their new home in the United States. This hidden history is told through conversations between a mother and a daughter, fragmented memories, the family photo archive, and Morkovcha, an invention of the Russian Korean diaspora symbolic of its mixed identity.

Osage | Director: Jacqueline Wade
From a bunker on the roof of their communal Philadelphia row house, the militant Black revolutionaries of MOVE fight to protect their family and defend the rights of their arrested comrades.
