Living in the South isn’t all biscuits and gravy — it can be challenging, tense, even scary. This collection of short films showcases films that explore some of the darker elements of the Southern experience to produce riveting and thought-provoking stories. What happens to a marriage on the rocks when the couple is forced to bury a body? How will a man choose to confront a history of racism during a night out with an estranged childhood friend? Will a high-tech home be a blessing to a growing family, or something far more insidious? Join your neighbors at Yonder for a night of nail-biting films that are sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. Admission is free.
