The Overstory:
An artist inherits a hundred years of photographic portraits, all of the same doomed American chestnut. A hard-partying undergraduate in the late 1980s electrocutes herself, dies, and is sent back into life by creatures of air and light. A hearing- and speech-impaired scientist discovers that trees are communicating with one another. An Air Force crewmember in the Vietnam War is shot out of the sky, then saved by falling into a banyan.

The Echo Maker:
On a winter night, Mark Schluters truck turns over in a near-fatal accident. His sister, Karin, returns reluctantly to their hometown to look after him. But when he finally awakes from his coma, Mark believes that Karin who looks, acts, and sounds just like his sister is really an identical impostor.

Orfeo:
Composer Peter Els opens the door one evening to find the police on his doorstep. His amateur science lab – the latest experiment in his lifelong attempt to find music in the most surprising places – has aroused the suspicions of Homeland Security. Panicked by the raid, Els turns fugitive. As an internet-fuelled hysteria erupts, Els – the ‘Bioterrorist Bach’ – pays a final visit to the people he loves, those who shaped his musical journey.
