Trailer for "Dos Estaciones"

“Dos Estaciones” follows fifty-year-old businesswoman María García (Teresa Sánchez), the owner of Dos Estaciones, a once-majestic tequila factory now struggling to stay afloat. The factory is the final hold-over from generations of Mexican-owned tequila plants in the highlands of Jalisco, the rest having folded to foreign corporations. Once one of the wealthiest people in town, María knows her current financial situation is untenable. When a persistent plague and an unexpected flood cause irreversible damage, she is forced to do everything she can to save her community’s primary economy and source of pride.

“Dos Estaciones” is not rated and will be showing through Oct. 13.

Trailer for "Funny Pages"

“Funny Pages” tells the story of Robert, a high school student and aspiring cartoonist, who rejects the comforts of suburban life. In this bitingly funny and playfully twisted coming-of-age story, he drops out of school and leaves home, and finds an unwilling teacher and unwitting friend in Wallace — a former low-level comic artist.

“Funny Pages,” which is rated R for violence, language, some graphic nudity and sexual content, is showing through Oct. 5.
