The collective dream and waking life of rescued orangutans in rehabilitation.

At a live action role-play (LARP) camp, three queer teens on the path to self-discovery must defend the fantasy realm of Sidleterra. Bolstered by the support of a safe space, they're free to fight monsters and figure out who they are.

A tribute to the 10 victims of the Tops Shooting in Buffalo, NY, blends documentary testimonial segments with performance art pieces to create a narrative of the black experience in America. On May 14th, 2022, a white supremicist traveled 200 miles to the nearest most African American populated area, and opened fire in a Tops Market, killing 10, injuring 3, and changing a community forever. Director, Tony Merkurii blends elements of docu-drama and a Spike Lee-esque urban fantasy, to convey the abstract life that many Black Americans face; All while following the 10 families of the shooting victims, to discover who these people were and the legacies they will leave behind. Filming predominantly in the community of East and Downtown Buffalo, Nightmare K!dZzz Productions has made it known that they are determined to make this film for and by Buffalonians; Hiring mostly from the area, and welcoming victim's family members onto the production team, this film is a proud community effort to remember these 10 beautiful people with dignity.

Additionally, the intention of the team is to submit the film to a number of film festivals across New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago, as well as broader festivals like Sundance and the Nicholl Committee.
