Summer in the Shadows
The familiar symphony of cicada chirps greeted Marissa as she stepped out of her pickup and into the afternoon sun. The sun blazed overhead as a slight breeze offered minuscule relief from the baking rays. After looking around to make sure she wasn't followed, Marissa quickly slipped inside the rustic barn that standing before her. Stepping into the rotted, falling-apart structure, you'd almost think it was sundown. Apart from the slits of light coming in through the patchy ceiling, it was as dark as night inside the barn. But having come to this dilapidated building many times before, Marissa knew how to navigate her way through the black void.

Lifetime Review: 'Picture Perfect Lies'
Rachel Collins (Megan Elizabeth Barker) thought she had a perfect life: a beautiful home, doting parents, and a loving boyfriend. But that all changed on her 16th birthday, with her party ending with Rachel finding her aunt Jenny (Crystal Allen) dead in the pool. Rachel is even more shocked when the death is ruled a homicide, as she can't understand why anyone would want to kill her aunt--or why her parents Angela and Spencer (Laurie Fortier and Matthew Pohlkamp) are acting so strangely in the aftermath.

It's through this business that Ellie meets Paul Munsky (Daniel Diemer), a jock on the football team seeking Ellie's services for a different purpose: to rewrite a love letter to his crush Aster Flores (Alexxis Lemire).

Short Film Reviews: Pride Month
It seems that when it comes to LGBT+ equality, we're at a point where the scale is pretty mixed. The Biden Administration has made noble strides to improve the lives of LGBTQ individuals and 2021 seems to be following in 2020's footsteps when it comes to seeing an influx of celebrity coming-out stories, providing comfort and inspiration to others struggling with their sexuality/identity. But for all that change, it's tragically clear that LGBTQ bigotry is still a prevalent force in our world. A horrific number of anti-LGBT legislations have been put into effect in 2021 (with more potentially on the way) and the COVID-19 crisis has taken a heavy toll on the mental health of LGBTQ youth. And the recent murder of Alireza Fazeli Monfared is a poignant reminder that violent homophobic hate remains an ongoing problem. It also shines a light on the disturbing fact that in many countries, LGBT+ behavior is still being criminalized and people still face prison time, physical abuse, and even execution for being who they are.
