Driven Underground

1 hr 30 mins

Out for a run in the woods along, 16-year-old Christy Palmer witnesses a contract killing and gets a clear look at the executioner. With a passerby's help, she's able to get away and tell the police what she saw. With her identification, Homicide Detectives Reagan West and Boyce are able to apprehend the killer, Karl Harvey, a known drug kingpin. Despite not handling what she witnessed as well as she says, Christy wants to do whatever she can to help put Harvey away, including testifying at his trial. Christy's mother, insurance-company regional-manager Sarah Palmer, isn't as sure about letting Christy testify, fearing for her safety. And this concern is well-founded: as much as West and Boyce try to assure her that they can protect her and Christy, Harvey--aided by unknown outside associates--seems able to thwart the police-protection measures in his attempts to harm or kill Sarah and Christy. Sarah finally decides that she and Christy should go on the run without telling West or Boyce, only getting initial help from Sarah's best friend Molly, including cash and her car, as Sarah and Christy must live as much off-the-grid as possible, which means no payment by plastic or use of electronics, and they can't tell anyone even Molly, where they're going. However, Harvey has help from one of Sarah's trusted contacts, as Sarah is unaware of that person's connection to the man who is trying to kill her and her daughter.

Evolution

1 hr 21 mins

Nicolas is a boy living on a remote island set in the future, or another planet - or is it a dream? His village consists of white-painted houses located above the sea with a volcanic rock and black sand coastline, populated by young women and boys all of a similar age to Nicolas. Whilst swimming, Nicolas makes a discovery in the ocean, which is shrugged off by his mother, who, like all the women in the town has tied-back hair, is pale and wears a simple thin beige dress. Nicolas is curious, thinks that he is being lied to and starts to explore his environment, witnessing some unsettling scenes. He then finds himself taken to a hospital-like building where he, along with the others, undergoes a series of medical procedures by the women, dressed as nurses. He is befriended by one nurse, who becomes instrumental in the film's denouement. The film is not easy to categorise; it is not only enigmatic but beautifully filmed with deeply poetic imagery. It reflects the fear of the unknown, experienced by a boy on the cusp of adolescence.
