Unless Something Goes Terribly Wrong
Dir. Kaitlyn Schwalje & Alex Wolf Lewis
Winner of this year’s Fowlie Award, Unless Something Goes Terribly Wrong follows the dedicated, motley crew that works day and night to keep Portland’s wastewater treatment plant running. Comedy and catastrophe meet as the team battle aging infrastructure, funding shortfalls, public apathy, PFAS “forever chemicals,” and an unending stream of putrid odors – in a valiant effort to keep the city regular.

Remaining Native
Dir. Paige Bethmann
Ku Stevens is a 17-year-old Native American runner training for his dream of becoming an elite collegiate athlete. As he comes of age, the memory of his great-grandfather’s 50-mile escape from an Indian boarding school connects past, present, and future, transforming Ku’s passion for running into a communal process of remembrance and healing.
