The Storm & The Boats, Crowboy, Embryo - Online for 24 Hours and In-Person at 7PM! 3 films in the package



The Storm & The Boats - Jody Small (Fair Lawn, New Jersey)

In this compelling documentary about the first year of the pandemic, New Jersey residents shared their raw emotions and personal stories. Filming began immediately after the first vaccines became available. The producer created a makeshift studio in her home to film the participants who are diverse in age, background and life experience. Once underway, the film received some grant support from the Rutgers University Oral History Archive and the New Jersey Historical Commission. 2024; 53 min.



Embryo – Joy Waldinger (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)

Sometimes a couple needs a little magic to start their family. This short film explores the stages of embryo development using non-traditional baby bump photos to celebrate growth and normalize different paths to parenthood! It documents the long and winding journey to parenthood via surrogacy and explores how to maintain a closeness to one’s child while they are in someone else’s uterus. 2024; 6 min.



Crowboy – Alexander S. White and Cynthia N. White (University Park, Pennsylvania)

Crowboy is a contemporary parable about childhood loneliness. Captivated by a crow, a young boy embarks on a journey to return her lost feather. Though faced with challenges and self-doubt along the way, the child finds courage and comfort in new friendships that lead him to a place of inner connection. 2024; 5 min.
