Block Description
Every encounter carries a history, and every journey brings us closer to something we may not be ready to face. The films in Ride, Die or Justify explore the friction between people whose paths converge, from a rideshare’s passing conflicts to a reunion burdened by decades of abandonment. As guarded hearts and competing perspectives collide, questions of accountability, understanding, and self-preservation come to the surface. What do we owe one another, and how much of ourselves can we give without surrendering our peace? Together, these stories consider the choices that follow confrontation—whether to make room for forgiveness, stand firm in our boundaries, or leave behind what we can no longer carry.
Dir. Levi Feeney 18:22 minutes
After being abandoned at a police station as a child, a guarded man unexpectedly comes face-to-face with his estranged mother decades later. Their tense reunion forces him to confront the pain he’s carried his entire life and decide whether closure means forgiveness, or finally letting go.
Dir. Leanna Bringht 26:39 minutes
A day in the life of a ride-share driver and passengers as they navigate interpersonal conflicts.
