A surrogate mother faces an uncertain future when the couple who hires her dies in an accident.

A young man testifies against his mother for killing his father with secondhand smoke. Inspired by documented cases, "The Pack" weaves together the jury's cinema verite style deliberation, provocative courtroom testimony, flashbacks, and the family's intimate home movies. An ambitious Assistant District Attorney (Carlos Leon, "The Big Lebowski") prosecutes a wife and mother (Arnaz) for murder after her 47-year-old husband dies of lung cancer. Their 24-year-old son decides to testify against her.

Set against the tumultuous lead-up to the 1999 referendum in East Timor and its horrifying aftermath, ANSWERED BY FIRE is a very personal exploration of first-world intervention in third-world traumas. Canadian RCMP officer Julie Fortin, Australian Federal Policeman Mark Waldman and a young East Timorese translator named Ismenio Soares are brought together by the UN's fateful effort to give the Timorese a voice in their own future. In the chaotic run-up to the vote, these initially reluctant partners become real friends. But when the UN evacuates in the post-ballot rampage, Mark and Zoe are forced to abandon Ismenio and his family to a nightmarish fate. Haunted by guilt, the two westerners each find their way back to Timor, driven to make amends to the people they tried - and failed - to protect.
