Title	Original title	Country of origin	Synopsis
Iserajta	Iserajta	Aucuria	A white-collar employee of a mining conglomerate, sent to secure the arrangements for resource exploration in a village in the Aucurian rainforest, finds himself ensnared in a web of conflicting feelings, buried pasts, and supernatural horror; loosely inspired by the 19th-century opera of the same name.
Stories from Haadland	Jeśehten fân Haadland	Azmara	An anthology theme consisting of five stories revolving around the lives of young people in the "outer Azmaran" province of Haadland and exploring themes of social deprivation, alienation and integration and concepts such as LGBTQ, Azmaran and working-class identity.
Good Friends	Goode freunder	Borland	After two young men convince their friend that they have killed someone and need his help to hide the body, what was meant as a joke escalates as their friend kills an eyewitness. As the three of them try to keep their involvement hidden, more than one sacrifice has to be made.
I, The Eyes	Mo Lizie la	Carucere	A telling of the lives of players on the Carrefour Stars baseball team and the events they experience on Carucere from 1935 to 1955 as told by the personification of the team itself.
Cherry	Cherry	Template:Country data Estmere	A young man is visited by a woman from the future, who reveals herself to be his future self. Together, they discuss their life and grapple with self-hatred and gender dysphoria. Based on a short story of the same name.
The Box	De Doos	Hennehouwe	In a dystopian near-future, a young man with mental health issues becomes an unwitting participant of an exploitative and murderous reality show, which doubles as a covert government experiment into the effectiveness of deep fakes and AI technology.
Extrarradio	Extrarradio	Piraea	Two young adults in their 20s explore love, heroin and their own sexuality in the decade of the 1990s and the heroin crisis that bursted in poor and middle class neighbourhoods of the city. A harsh picture of social contrasts on both sides of the first ring road of Alikianos and the decade of the 1990s, where democratic openness and economic liberalisation left a generation behind.
Such Beautiful Estmerish Rain	Such Beautiful Estmerish Rain	Rwizikuru	A Rwizi couple who live in Tabatala, but work for employers in Donston faces prejudices inherent in a murungocratic system in the interregnum between the Great Collapse and the Great War, and demand better treatment from the varungu-dominated society.
