Promised Land -- This gritty drama follows two high school acquaintances, Hancock and Danny, after they graduate. The first film commissioned by the Sundance Film Festival, it portrays the other half of the American dream, as Hancock and his cheerleader girlfriend wander to a middle-class mediocrity out of reach for Danny and his psychotic wife Bev.

Magic in the Water chronicles the adventures of ten-year-old Ashley Black, who accompanies her divorced father on vacation to Glenorky--a fresh-water lake known for the legendary creature rumored to be lurking beneath its surface. Ashley is drawn to a mysterious presence in the lake, and the adventure begins.

Focusing on the lives of three high school buddies, this picturesque drama is a study of the American Dream gone wrong. Davey, Danny and Mary are friends from high school. Davey was a basketball star and Mary, his girlfriend. But two years later the two find that what held them together in school has gradually faded. There's real trouble, however, when outcast Danny returns to Utah with his new wife, a spit-fire whose presence leads to disaster.
