And On That Day, written and directed by John Henry Soto, is a quietly powerful short film about what happens when a lifetime of silence reaches its breaking point. Robert has spent thirty years doing what’s expected—showing up to work, keeping his thoughts to himself, and living within restraint. On his final day before retirement, a simple farewell speech becomes something far more personal, carrying the weight of decades of unspoken truth. Soto trusts subtlety over spectacle. Small gestures, pauses, and expressions create tension, allowing the audience to feel the pressure of time closing in on a single moment. The performance feels grounded and human, making Robert instantly recognizable rather than dramatic or idealized. Clean visuals and measured pacing mirror Robert’s inner state, letting the film’s final moments resonate naturally. At its core, And On That Day asks a timeless question: what do we lose—or gain—by staying silent for so long?

With Peter Lord, the famous co-creator of Chicken Run and Wallace & Gromit, we see how Chaplin became the king of slapstick comedy and the superstar of the movies.

In 2010 David Crowley, an Iraq veteran, aspiring filmmaker and charismatic up-and-coming voice in fringe politics, began production on his film Gray State.

In January of 2015, Crowley was found dead with his family in their suburban Minnesota home. Their shocking deaths quickly become a cause célèbre for conspiracy theorists who speculate that Crowley was assassinated by a shadowy government concerned about a film and filmmaker that was getting too close to the truth about their aims.
