All of these quirkily delightful works take great pleasure in outlandish detail, fake erudition and corkscrew narratives.

Quiet City and Dance Party USA (2006) Directed by Aaron Katz - Quiet City: Shot in Brooklyn in 2006, the Independent Spirit Award-nominated Quiet City is a gentle masterpiece of naturalistic performances and poetic cinematography.

Their paths cross late at night on an empty subway platform. From this chance encounter, an unlikely connection is formed. They spend twenty-four hours together drifting to and from diners, parks, art galleries, and parties. Inflected with melancholy and hopefulness, Aaron Katz's second feature is a fully realized work of truly independent American cinema.

Delving into dark territory, Dance Party, USA is a raw, honest portrayal of teens struggling to confront questions of looming adulthood and sexual violence.
