Breaking the Code
47 mins Not Rated
Synopsis:
Born to rural Texas farmers in 1943, Vernon Fisher's childhood exposure to painting was only as "something you did to houses." By the 1980’s, he was exhibiting alongside Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat, establishing himself as one of the most important artists of the 20th century. Winner of Best Historical Film prize at the 2023 Dallas International Film Festival, Breaking the Code introduces Vernon Fisher to a new generation while also giving the many who already know his work an intimate look at his life and art.

Breaking Boundaries

Synopsis:
BREAKING BOUNDARIES follows the journey of Nastasya Generalova, a determined black Californian teenager raised by her single white Russian mother, Olga.

This poignant story offers a unique perspective on racial diversity and the personal struggles of breaking boundaries in a predominantly white sport.

Lost in the Shuffle
Synopsis:
Four suits. Fifty-two cards. A million possibilities. In the hands of a skilled magician, a deck of cards transforms into a vessel of wonder and (im)possibility, so it’s little surprise that for almost as long as there have been cards, there have been card tricks. Seen through the eyes of some of the world’s best sleight-of-hand artists, Lost in the Shuffle is a multifaceted look at this remarkable 400-year relationship that’s seen these simple playthings provide an endless source of miraculous inspiration for magicians throughout time.
