Dog of God
In the 17th century Livonian village of Zaube, there’s something in the air, something potentially sinister and ripe with nightmarish ramifications. Several of the village’s residents can feel it: from the burly pastor’s scared, young errand boy to the local tavern’s maid. The danger manifests itself loud and clear when the pastor accuses the maid of witchcraft, leading to a trial during which an elder man proclaims himself to be a werewolf — not the traditional Lon Chaney, Jr. kind of werewolf but, rather, one rooted in Latvian folklore and hewing closer to a mad shaman. How all this tension comes to a head will change the village and its surviving inhabitants forever.

The Gesuidouz
Hanako has a dream: her horror-themed punk band The Gesuidouz will perform at Glastonbury Festival and that, just like her heroes Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain, she will die at 27.

Queer
Living in Mexico, Lee spends his days drinking and chasing lovers. But he’s far less successful at the latter – to those around him, he’s nothing more than a source of ridicule.

A night of heavy drinking ends in bed, but the distance between the two men seems to remain, if not increase. Looking for a way to bond, Lee decides to take Eugene along on an expedition to find the hallucinogenic yagé – believed to hold healing properties. Perhaps then, they will finally find a sense of togetherness.
Transcending Dimensions
At the mountainous retreat of sinister, sadistic cult leader Master Hanzo, a cluster of credulous souls have gathered for guidance towards spiritual enlightenment. Among them, however, is nihilistic hitman Shinno and his client Nonoka, who holds Hanzo responsible for the disappearance of her boyfriend Rosuke. Despite Nonoka’s sudden and inexplicable suicide, Shinno elects to honour the contract, but that’s quickly revealed to be no simple task. A formidable sorcerer, Hanzo is only delighted by the challenge of his new adversary, and the true circumstances of ascetic seeker Rosuke are far more uncanny than one might imagine...
