Mr Darcy once told Elizabeth Bennet: “you have bewitched me, body and soul.” Cindependent presents a Friday morning program of stories about identity and love that encompass both body and soul.
THE SALT BETWEEN US
Director: Carrie Stalk
Runtime: 7:25
Mia and Eden have spent years orbiting the unspoken truth behind their feelings, neither daring to name it. One quiet night by the fire, Mia finally admits her feelings. Eden’s fear sends Mia away, but the confession can’t be taken back. The moment forces both women to face what they’ve long avoided: that their connection might be more than friendship, if only they’re brave enough to risk everything they already share.
THE DECISION
Director: Cory Thibert
Runtime: 14:25
A sharp-witted 30-year-old man with cerebral palsy living in assisted care has his independence tested when his overprotective mother secretly enrolls him in a risky medical trial – forcing him, his girlfriend, and his neighbor to confront what freedom really means.
MRI
Director: Dougal Vecqueray
Runtime: 3:46
A patient named Tom goes for an MRI scan only to be transported into a galactic void. After the contrast dye he was injected with begins to spread across his body, Tom is turned blue. Things become even more trippy as Tom’s journey through the void takes a sinister turn.
10TH FLOOR TRANSFORMATION
Director: Katy McCarthy
Runtime: 8:35
After breaking down in a stuck elevator, a new mom has a transformative experience.
BUTT/STUFF
Director: Ricki Romano
Runtime: 7:02:00
Two anxious roommates fight over the most hallowed of queer spaces…the bathroom.
PINING OHIO|

DIRT

Five months after being abandoned, a mother and her young son live in suffocating grief. When her emotional withdrawal puts him in danger, she is forced to confront the pain beneath her numbness, leading to a raw and transformative rediscovery of connection, sensuality, and joy.
