Los Angeles Premiere of the Feature Film The Song Of The Summer
Directed By: Kelly Godell
Written By: Kelly Godell, Mae Governale
“Blending fact and fiction, The Song of Summer exposes the misogynistic undercurrents of a culture obsessed with blaming mothers—told through the unraveling of an ill-fated family.”
The Song of Summer follows a young girl orphaned at birth and raised in foster care, fighting to rise above her circumstances. With the support of a foster mother, Summer begins to glimpse a brighter future—until a tragic encounter with a teacher derails her path and leads to her untimely death. Blending fact and fiction, the film confronts a culture steeped in misogyny and mother-blaming, exposing how easily young women’s lives are broken by the systems meant to protect them.

The Other
Feature Film
Director: Joy Sela
Award winning documentary exploring the complex relationship between Israelis & Palestinians—and the transformative journey that follows when they are faced with meeting ‘the other’ amidst the difficulty of the conflict & occupation—providing an extraordinary example of what we are all capable of as humans.
Filmed pre and post October 7th from 2017-2024, The Other focuses on Israeli & Palestinian peace-builders, anti-occupation activists, artists, academics, ex-fighters, bereaved parents and many more living the reality on the ground. Whether in non-violent co-resistance, peace-building, or shared community, we witness those who have only known each other through hate, bloodshed, inequality, and war, transcend beyond narratives & belief systems. They teach us that unlearning deep-seated conditioning is possible and that we can liberate ourselves from generational trauma, hatred and fear—no matter how ingrained and legitimate those fears are.
