STAKES IS HIGH
Jean-Pierre Caner, 2023, 90 min, US

We’ve all taken an Uber or Lyft and been driven around by complete strangers -- How can they afford these cars? Can you really make money driving? How do they survive? The few films set in this world portray drivers as predators, preying on unsuspecting passengers – but our film uncovers another layer, how rideshare companies prey on drivers, making it impossible to survive.

Preceded by:

DAMN THING
Toby Sidler, 4 min, US

Music Video

GOLD RUSH
Jessie Klueter, 12 min, US

In this surrealist satire of the Ozempic era, a young woman must decide how far she’s willing to go to achieve the skin of her dreams.
