Writer: Neena Beber
Genre: Comedy/Romance
Plot Summary: A romantic comedy about two people who discover
many surprising things about themselves and each other when they unexpectedly
become the parents of their pint-sized godchild. Since his parents passed away,
9-year-old Waylon has been in the care of his Aunt Marie, a dedicated environmentalist
and nature lover who adores her nephew but believes that, to really thrive,
he should move out of her retirement village and live with his godparents--who
are single and live separately. Though terrified at the sudden prospect of taking
responsibility for raising a child, godparents Julia and Reg decide that as
hip, intelligent adults, they’ll be able to figure out how to make it
work. However, Julia and Reg, who once had a disastrous date 10 years ago, are
each accustomed to their self-centered lifestyles. Since they aren’t a
couple and barely even get along, Julia and Reg soon discover that, for the

someone else first. And, if they want Waylon to grow up right, they are going

Director:
Matthew Leutwyler
Writers: Matthew Leutwyler, Peter Rudy
Genre: Comedy/Drama/Romance
Running Time: 98 minutes
Plot Summary: Filmmaker Alex Harty, 29, has always considered
himself a "tortured artist." But it's not until his wife dies in a car accident
that he learns the term's true meaning. Still saddled with grief two years after
her death, Alex's once promising career has come to a standstill. After assaulting
a movie producer with a Mont Blanc pen in Los Angeles, Alex returns to his hometown
of San Francisco with little more than his beloved Mercury Comet and a tape
recording of his wife's last phone message. Once in the Bay Area, Alex re-acquaints
himself with a wide array of characters, including a photographer who's stalking
her ex-boyfriend, a fetish-hungry former classmate, a San Francisco socialite
who fancies herself as a patron of the arts, a wedding band singer turned performance
artist, a flashy City Supervisor who aspires to be the next JFK, Jr., and the
now grown-up French girl who spent her childhood summers as his neighbor. Several
misadventures, including a comical car accident, a series of failed pranks,
and a minor earthquake, culminate in Alex reaching a clearer understanding of
his grief, one that allows him to break through his "torture" and return to
his art.

Taglines: "A love story for the romantically challenged." "A
romantic comedy about letting go!"
Plot Summary: When Carla Tate, now a young woman, is "graduated"
out of the training school where she has resided for many years because she
is mentally challenged, her hope is that she will be accepted for all that she
can now do for herself. But Carla's family is wealthy, which permits her mother,
already blinded to her daughter's rather high-functioning abilities, to try
and provide for Carla beyond her needs or desires, bringing forth the inevitable
confrontations. For what Carla may lack in mental ability, she certainly makes
up for in her insistence on being independent, even to living in her own apartment.
But if this isn't enough, into the mix comes a young man, equally mentally challenged,
who moves Carla beyond anyone's control.
