Mrs. Wong is Unavailable

Mrs. Lin Wong, wife of Edmund Wong and co-owner of their chain of tea stores, is finally settling into her new life in post-war Toronto. But when she realizes her husband has been stealing money from their business, she does what no woman in her family has ever done: she files for a divorce and decides to establish herself as an independent businesswoman. Faced with being a single Asian woman in this new city - still wary of non-European faces - Lin must learn to navigate a world of competitors and traditions, both Chinese and Canadian, as she creates a home, and a name, for herself.

Just the Fax

Monica Trujillo is on the trail of the biggest story of her career when she is brutally attacked on her way home one night. When she wakes up, she finds herself in a bare, windowless cell, her phone and wallet gone. The only other thing in the room with her: a Canon fax machine. In order to escape and finish her story, Monica needs to re-learn how to use the machine, and hope to God that someone on the outside knows how to use one too. 

Raining Katz and Dogs

Professional dog trainer Ben Katz has never been in touch with his Jewish heritage: he only goes to Shabbat for the wine, hasn’t been to synagogue since his Bar Mitzvah, and is an avid fan of cheeseburgers. So when a death in the family causes a flood of relatives to descend on his Seattle home, he’s going to need more than a little bit of oil to keep himself going. 

Laymen

Cody is a videographer, who does weddings, bachelor parties—you name it. One day, a client makes a special request: for him to film her and her husband having sex. Put off at first, Cody eventually agrees, thanks in part to strong words of encouragement from his roommates, Arpad and Josh. Naturally, then, when the experience goes so well Cody considers starting his own amateur pornography business, Arpad and Josh are the first ones he calls.
