FRAGMENTS
Isabel Sztriberny - USA 2004

GROWING PAINS
Mario Diaz - USA
A vivacious eight-year old named Ginny convinces Dan, her workaholic father, to ditch work and take her to her Saturday soccer game. At the park, she uncovers a secret about her father that shatters her sense of security and trust. Her situation worsens when her father selfishly tries to make her conceal her discovery, sending her reeling into a whirlwind of conflicting and overwhelming emotions. Exploring the pain and confusion many children confront in realizing their parents are flawed, the film takes us into the deceiving world of family politics and illustrates the fragility of a child's innocence and trust.
