Smodcastle Film Festival 2026 - Block 22
Not Safe for Work - When a branded video about a throuple promoting 3-ply paper towels fails, Greta, an award-winning filmmaker now leading a social video team at a marketing agency, loses what little grip she had on her team. What her boss performs as mentorship is really an ultimatum: commit an act of cruelty for a promotion, or be fired. A satire about how playing the game beats talent, especially in a world where AI is replacing workers.
Vienna: Suddenly an Angel - One moment, she was here. The next, she was gone. No explanation. No cause. No answers. When 2½-year-old Vienna Carly Savino passed away suddenly, her parents, Dr. Denise Wunderler and Dr. Michael Savino, were left with no explanation. As physicians, they had spent their careers saving lives, yet nothing prepared them for losing their own daughter to Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood (SUDC)—a little-known tragedy that takes the lives of seemingly healthy children. Suddenly an Angel is a story of loss, love, and relentless determination. Through personal stories and expert insights, the film sheds light on a devastating medical mystery that demands attention.
Mildlife - Lawrence just wants to drum his depression away in his hardcore band with his best friend. The only problem? He's introverted. They haven't booked a single show yet. And his girlfriend wants them to leave the only town he's ever known. A town where he struggles with the complicated, co-dependent relationship with his parents, who both live with cerebral palsy.
