This films kicking off this years festival are  Fresh Dressed  and Reality. You can watch a trailer and clip to both movies below.

Fresh Dressed chronicles the history of hip-hop and urban fashion and its rise from Southern cotton plantations to the gangs of 1970s in the South Bronx, to corporate America, and everywhere in between, getting to the core of where style was born on the black and brown side of town.

Jason, a mild-mannered cameraman dreams of directing his first horror film. Bob Marshal, a wealthy producer, agrees to finance the film, but on one condition: Jason has 48 hours to find the perfect, most agonized scream in the history of cinema.
