MEETS IN GREAT HALL

THEYDREAM is a deeply personal autobiographical documentary that traces how art can become a lifeline in the wake of loss. William D. Caballero revisits his family’s history in Fayetteville, North Carolina, interweaving new 2D and 3D animations with vérité footage, archival materials, and intimate mother-son conversations.

Rooted in the death of his grandmother, Isolina, the film follows Caballero’s mother as she spirals into grief and self-blame, having not been by her mother’s side in her final moments. Instead of retreating, Caballero hands his mother a camera and animation tools, inviting her to help bring her mother back to life. Audiences witness her trembling first attempts at animating, the tears she sheds inside motion-capture gear, and the gradual reawakening of her creative strength.

Ultimately, THEYDREAM becomes a cinematic act of survival: a testament to how creative collaboration can resurrect memory, restore connection, and guide families through the darkest grief toward healing.

CLASSROOM 2

The prolific guitarist and composer Greg Diamond has emerged in recent years as an innovator with a distinct brand of Latin-infused contemporary jazz, touted by Latin Jazz Network as a “composer of great maturity and genius” and “a promising talent on the New York jazz scene” by Bill Milkowski of Downbeat magazine. A native of New York City, born to parents of mixed Jewish and Latin American heritage, Diamond draws his influence from a broad range of pan–Latin American styles, particularly those originating from his mother’s native homeland of Colombia.
