Directed by Sundance and Emmy-award winning filmmaker, Lee Hirsch, The Bully Project is a beautifully cinematic, character-driven

"I'm going to tell you a story and it's true... I always have to tell people that," so asserts comedian-turned-playwright-turned-filmmaker
Mike Birbiglia directly to the viewer at the outset of his autobiographically inspired, fictional feature debut. Birbiglia wears his incisive
wit on his sleeve while portraying a cinematic surrogate. We are thrust into the tale of a burgeoning stand-up comedian struggling
with the stress of a stalled career, a stale relationship threatening to race out of his control, and the wild spurts of severe sleepwalking
he is desperate to ignore. Based on the successful one-man show, Sleepwalk With Me engages in the kind of passionate and personal
storytelling that transfigures intimate anguish into comic art. Comedy. Starring Mike Birbiglia, Lauren Ambrose, James Rebhorn, Carol
Kane, Cristin Milioti, Aya Cash. Directed by Mike Birbiglia. Rated PG-13 (some sexual content and brief language). Young Adult. Fiction.

Winner at the Sundance Film Festival, 5 Broken Cameras is a deeply personal, first-hand account of non-violent resistance in Bil'in, a
West Bank village threatened by encroaching Israeli settlements. Shot almost entirely by Palestinian farmer Emad Burnat, who bought
his first camera in 2005 to record the birth of his youngest son, the footage was later given to Israeli co-director Guy Davidi to edit.
Structured around the violent destruction of each one of Burnat's cameras, the filmmakers' collaboration follows one family's
evolution over five years of village turmoil. Burnat watches from behind the lens as olive trees are bulldozed, protests intensify, and
lives are lost. "I feel like the camera protects me," he says, "but it's an illusion." . Documentary/Foreign Film. Starring Guy Davidi.
Directed by Emad Burnat AND Guy Davidi. Adult. Nonfiction. Hebrew/Arabic with English subtitles.

Alex and Nica are young, in love and engaged to be married. The summer before their wedding, they are backpacking in the Caucasus
Mountains in Georgia. Walking for hours, they trade anecdotes, play games to pass the time of moving through space. And then, a
momentary misstep, a gesture that takes only two or three seconds, a gesture that's over almost as soon as it begins. But once it is
done, it can't be undone. Once it is done, it threatens to undo everything the couple believed about each other and about themselves.
All the while, they are not alone. They are always with the guide, who witnesses their every move. The film plays off the relationship
between young travelers and the places they travel to, between guide and guided. But at heart, it is a love story -- a tale about
betrayal, both accidental and deliberate, about masculinity, failure and the ambiguities of forgiveness. Thriller/Horror/Suspense.

In his exhilarating new film, German master Wim Wenders shoots in 3D to capture the brilliantly inventive dance world of legendary

death in 2009, Wenders continued with the project, turning it into the most exciting tribute he could imagine. Sensual and visually
stunning, Pina uses 3D to remarkable effect, taking the audience into Bausch's work in her imaginative sets powerfully rendering the
beauty and sheer physicality of the dances and dancers of her Tanztheater Wuppertal ensemble. Documentary/Dance. Starring Regina
