SF IndieFest: Silent Notes & Nocturnals Anonymous
Silent Notes: After finding out he is going deaf, Bruce is stuck at a crossroads: he needs a surgical intervention that he can’t afford. In his attempt to find a solution that will get him the money, he meets Ethan, a lonely man who needs above all someone to talk to. The unlikely pair will embark on a journey of no return, where Ethan can’t stop talking to Bruce, who is unable to hear. (80 mins, dir. Toni Comas)
Nocturnals Anonymous: After being thrown on the streets by his parents, an at-risk teenage vampire must find a way to survive and find a system of emotional support. The only place he can go where nobody thinks he’s a blood-sucking monster is a support group for disenfranchised nocturnal youths. Can he make new friends and adjust to his new life or will he remain a stigmatized outcast? (7 mins, dir. Sam Moony)
