This year’s films at LUNA FEST:

A Good Match
Ann and Alex have split up, but does that mean it’s over with Alex’s mom, too? Ann wants to give the relationship another try.

Flor de Toloache
A group of women daringly challenge gender social norms as an all-female mariachi band.

Miss Todd
In 1910 New York, Miss Todd works to understand the principles of flight, but she has more than gravity holding her down.

Tryouts
Being a teenager isn’t easy, especially for Nayla, a Muslim American girl who wants to join her new high school’s cheerleading squad.

Chicas Day
Today is a girls’ day out, everything is allowed. But don’t forget that this is just a game …

Lady Parts
In an industry dominated by men, Lady Parts Automotive brings a woman’s touch.

Tits
A story about feminine exploration.

Viva
A documentary portrait of Cornwall’s grandmother of punk, or, how to be a rebel at 82.

In past years, I felt that the Luna Fest had a better shorts program that the Oscar and Manhattan shorts programs.
