 2.7 minutes - by Spencer MacDonald - from Switzerland - Short synopsis: 
 An elderly global northerner\, sitting comfortably in one of the worldâ€
 ™s most privileged and unselfconscious societies. She is shaming viewers

 her own immediate environment. But she is ultimately silenced by the inc
 ongruity of the setting.\n\nDREAMS INHERITED - 9.2 minutes - by Jessica 
 Wilde - from Florida - Short synopsis: Dreams Inherited is a short docum
 entary about the search for adventure in a life away from the luxuries o
 f land. It is about the realization of dreams that were passed down by f
 amily folklore through hard work and small moments of meaning. It featur
 es Jessica Wilde\, Josh Fody and Ling Ling\, their 42-year-old Kelly Pet
 erson sailboat that they spent years renovating and eventually sailing u
 p and down the East Coast from the Florida Keys to Maine.\n\nTETON GRAVI

 United States - Short synopsis: In Pursuit of Soul explores the fiercely
  authentic culture of independent resort towns across the country\, whil
 e meeting the people that call those mountains home - the true soul of s
 kiing and snowboarding. Follow along as we visit and explore 12 independ
 ent resorts from East Coast classics to hidden gems in the Mountain West
  that are the beating heart of the winter community. In Pursuit of Soul

 T - 2.8 minutes - by John Jenkins - from California - Short synopsis: A 
 autobiographical story of a man needing to find silence away from the sc
 reens\, sounds and sirens of a major city. During a pandemic.\n\nGHOST P
 ONDS - 12.1 minutes - by Amanda Sosnowski - from United Kingdom - Short 
 synopsis: In the farmland of Englandâ€™s East Anglia\, a search and resc
 ue mission is underway. A team is working to excavate land haunted by gh
 ostsâ€¦ but these are not ordinary ghostsâ€¦ they are ghost ponds. Norfo
 lk used to have more ponds than any other English county\, but over the 
 past 50 years the pressures of modern-day farming forced landowners to f
 ill-in ponds\, making room for new crops\, while burying Englandâ€™s wet
 lands at an exponential rate. Despite the odds\, the result from digging
  up burial grounds of once-thriving ecosystems holds much promiseâ€¦ eve
 n leading to staggering finds. Will it be the smallest changes that can 
 make the biggest difference?\n\nSAP TIME - 4.2 minutes - by Roger Scott 
 McCord - from Maine - Short synopsis: Two brothers\, who own a Maine dai
 ry farm\, also make maple syrup to help make ends meet.\n\nWALKING TWO W
 ORLDS - 29 minutes - by Maia Wikler - from British Columbia - Short syno
 psis: Itâ€™s more than just polar bear scenes in the Arctic. With the th
 reat of oil drilling in the Refuge and Yukon Flats along the Yukon River
 \, Indigenous communities face grave threats to their way of life\, food
  security and identity. Fueled by an unwavering love and responsibility 
 for the land\, Han Gwichâ€™in 19-year old\, Quannah Chasinghorse\, and h
 er mother\, Jody Potts\, are taking a stand to defend their sacred homel
 ands. Protecting the Arctic is often advocated from a polarizing perspec
 tive of old school conservationism pitted against economic development. 
 This documentary film instead wields the power of empathy and relationsh
 ips through the untold perspective of an Indigenous\, women-led fight to
  protect the Arctic and reclaim Indigenous identity.
