"Glendora" will have its World Premiere at Dances With Films in NYC in January, get info HERE: https://danceswithfilms.com/film-listings-docs/

In the heart of the Mississippi Delta, the village of Glendora may seem quiet and remote. But beneath its stillness lies a vibrant, tightly knit African-American community whose strength, resilience, and creativity thrive despite chronic scarcity. GLENDORA is the result of five years of close collaboration between filmmaker and townspeople—an intimate portrait of life where economic fragility meets profound cultural wealth. Told through the voices of multiple generations, the film weaves personal testimonies with daily rituals—birthdays, graduations, weddings, funerals— capturing the rhythm of a town that continuously rises above its circumstances. As the Mississippi landscape shifts, so do the stories, revealing both the universality of human experience and the distinct textures of rural Southern life. More than a place, GLENDORA reflects a larger American history shaped by racial injustice, economic neglect, and structural inequality. The film underscores the community’s efforts to stay connected and shape its future amid ongoing challenges. GLENDORA is a film made with—and by—the people who live there. It amplifies voices too often unheard, offering a powerful story of culture, resilience, creativity, and collective memory from a town long overlooked—but not easily forgotten.

Set in a small Oklahoma town with a big dream, "FRAGILÉ" follows one man’s outrageous (yet oddly inspiring) mission to revitalize his community by building a 50-foot-tall leg lamp in the middle of Main Street. What begins as a lighthearted bid to boost tourism quickly ignites controversy, turning the town into an unlikely battleground of art, identity, and small-town politics.

From fiery city council meetings to viral headlines, accusations of objectification to a cease-and-desist letter from Warner Bros., "FRAGILÉ" captures the chaos, comedy, and community spirit that arise when good intentions meet cultural flashpoints.

This film is about more than a lamp. It’s about what happens when creativity and conflict collide in America’s heartland,” says director Reagan Elkins. “It’s a story that’s both absurd and deeply human. You’ll laugh, you’ll cringe, and you might even see your own hometown in the reflection.”

A sharp and entertaining look at how one quirky idea can divide and unite a community all at once, "FRAGILÉ" illuminates the delicate balance between progress and tradition with humor and heart.

TRAILER HERE: https://youtu.be/RxzVePUpF5A

Elkins (an Oklahoma native) takes audiences inside the absurdity and heartfelt authenticity of small-town America, showing how one giant lamp can illuminate everything from art and identity to ego and community.

"This Ordinary Thing" is coming to theaters December 5th with a VOD to follow.

TRAILER HERE: https://youtu.be/6qcgS6xWyA4?si=uewOkS4Lu_M18LSp

Haunting and unforgettable, "This Ordinary Thing" tells the story of non-Jews who helped save Jewish people across Europe during The Holocaust. The film combines never-before-seen archival footage with the testimonies of over forty different people who, working independently and at great risk to themselves and their families, saved thousands of Jewish strangers from almost certain death. Narrated by an all-star cast, the film is a timely reminder of the pockets of goodness that can rise in a sea of evil: everyday people helping others who were "different" from them.

IMDB HERE: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt37799214/?ref_=fn_t_1

The film employs some of the world’s greatest actors, performing excerpts translated from the original transcripts. The cast, including Helen Mirren, F. Murray Abraham, Carrie Coon, Jeremy Irons, Ellen Burstyn, and Stephen Fry, have amassed five Oscars (and over twenty nominations), over sixty Emmy nominations, and over twenty-five Tony nominations in their illustrious careers.
