Hen A runaway hen finds refuge in a crumbling Greek taverna and bears witness to a human-smuggling operation. Hen proves motherhood looks the same across species. If you think this is a goofy movie about a chicken, you couldn’t be more wrong.

Three of a Kind In Charlotte Brodthagen’s tender yet spiky debut feature, a mother and daughter’s cozy Christmas is upended when their estranged grandmother shows up at their cabin.

SIFF & CFC Present A Nightmare on Elm Street with DJ NicFit A group of suburban teenagers learn to never sleep again when they discover they’re being targeted by a vicious serial killer who can slaughter you in your dreams. This time, Seattle’s own DJ NicFit will create a live soundtrack to accompany Wes Craven’s original, paradigm-shifting supernatural chiller.

American Doctor Three courageous doctors—a Jewish orthopedic surgeon from North Carolina, a Zoroastrian trauma surgeon from California, and a Palestinian American ER specialist from Illinois—volunteer their services in Gaza, risking their lives to save others.

Assets & Liabilities Tacoma-based director Zach Weintraub’s fictional counterpart—also named Zach—is a burnt-out suburban dad who is taken on a wild supernatural odyssey when he meets a skater kid at the park who reminds him of his younger, more idealistic self.

Cuba & Alaska Amid the carnage of war in Ukraine, frontline medics Cuba and Alaska risk their lives to save others, forging an unbreakable bond of friendship while holding onto dreams of a life beyond conflict.
