Since their formation in 2018, homegrown filmmakers DONTWATCHTHECLOCK have kept their runtimes wide-ranging from a 10-minute short of friends rummaging around their Austin rental to a 30-minute reel of local band haha Laughing performing at Hotel Vegas. Prepare for their official break into the 60-minute-plus arena as they test-screen debut feature Small Talk. Funded by a car crash settlement – at least according to screening venue We Luv Video – the ragtag film follows two co-workers and their roommates as they deal with the aftermath of a blind date gone cringe. – James Scott
