Equal parts guitar-heavy rock opera, Euro village melodrama and folk magic bonanza, this beloved Lithuanian cult hit comes to North America for the very first time! An incredibly ambitious sung-through musical a la THE UMBRELLAS OF CHERBOURG (where the entire film is without traditional dialogue), the story revolves around a devil who’s booted out of Heaven and drops into a farmer’s frog pond. Quick as you can say “The Devil and Daniel Webster,” the farmer promises the devil the hand of his beautiful blonde love in exchange for their as-yet unborn daughter, and wicked complications ensue over the years. THE DEVIL’S BRIDE is thoroughly laced with surreal images: legions of female devils riding bareback on horses; a black carriage disappearing into the waters of a lake; rituals of mistletoe roots and rowan berries and straw men.

PREDATORS is a chilling, edge of your seat thriller that delves into the murk of human nature to observe hunter, predator, subject and spectator alike, all ensnared in a complicated web of entertainment as far as the eye can see. A cultural sensation from its inception in the early 2000s, Dateline NBC’s candid-camera investigative series "To Catch a Predator" ensnared sex offenders and lured them to a film set, where they would be interviewed and arrested while cameras rolled. The show was a hit and transformed its host Chris Hansen into a moral crusader and TV star, while spawning a worldwide industry of imitators and vigilantes. But, why did we watch so voraciously — and why do we continue to devour its web-based, clickbait-driven offshoots?  Looking back on the show and the countless franchises it spawned, filmmaker David Osit turns his camera on journalists, actors, law enforcers, academics, and ultimately himself, to trace America’s obsession with watching people at their lowest.

It’s a race against time as the group struggles to learn three songs in three days for the festival’s rock concert.
