In a world transformed by the revelation of extraterrestrial existence, Ryan, on the brink of middle age, embarks on a journey to escape societal expectations. His quest leads him to Vietnam, where tensions rise over the influx of aliens. Broke and disillusioned, he finds himself entangled in the seedy underbelly of back street dives and casinos, setting off a chain of events that will haunt him forever.

4) FOUR/SIX-C | 14 mins | Followed by Q&A with the director

Set in a desolated dystopia, Sal lives in isolation, obsessed with bringing back someone he once loved. As he delves deeper into his journey fighting against his own thoughts, he confronts the spectres of his past and the shadows of an uncertain future. He is now down to his very last try to bring her back and is overwhelmed with fear of losing her forever.
