Can You Teach Me How To Breathe?
Synopsis:
A US-Navy owned submarine is struck and sinking in the Mediterranean Sea. Four people are onboard the vessel, unsure of their situation. As they begin to reveal more about themselves to each other, their circumstances become increasingly strange and dire. Odd messages from the outside world and ominous forces pushing on the walls threaten the delicate stasis they have found themselves in and the group must figure out whether they should attempt escape or else accept their fate

Not Quite
Synopsis:
Three people sit in a circle, in a room, where their understanding of themselves, each other and language itself has been forgotten. In the process of relearning how to speak, the characters relearn themselves and their relationships, eventually coming to a standstill at the question: is it better to know, or do we begin again?
