A new take on a classic tale! After being rescued by the U.S. Government from a global warming-ravaged North Pole, Santa Claus AKA โKrisโ finds himself living a life of solitude on the south side of Chicago. He struggles to make sense of his new life and where his place in this new world might be. A chance meeting with a young girl who shows promising signs of altruism gives him hope for the future, even if it doesnโt include him.
Newly updated with expanded and new material.

Very happy to share our little UFO film with an even bigger audience! Just a little over two years ago we shot this film in a studio during a blizzard and now it feels like we've been all over the world with it. Next we just gotta find out if the aliens have YouTube. Thanks for watching!
โจ The Best Picks of December โจ
Desire, identity, and survival collide in this monthโs standout shorts. From a teenage girl testing boundaries on a family camping trip, to a father-daughter road trip that takes a sci-fi turn, to the desperate lengths of navigating immigration, and a darkly comic cleanup that reveals emotional truths โ these films prove that the messiest situations often reveal the most.

Behind the scenes of Oculus: me, sprinting on all fours like an overcaffeinated gremlin because thatโs what the scene โneeded.โ Still not sure how my back survived. ๐น

Hi everyone, this week we have a Halloween surprise for you! My producer Jeph and I are rewatching Oculus! Grab some popcorn and candy and get ready for some southern gothic psychological horror. Itโs been over a decade since Iโve seen it and Jephโs coming in blind! ๐ ๐
