Will You Bury Me
' Will You Bury Me ' is an excellent example of a short film that, although it doesn’t approach a popular subject from an innovative perspective, surprises with its naturalness and sincerity. Likewise, although Noor El

Film reviewALEXANNE
What would an intimate drama written by Asimov or Philip K. Dick, in collaboration with Ian McEwan, look like? We know that such a combination may sound quite bizarre, but director Kilian Thomas manages to find in his sh

Film reviewThe Vow
We all know the sad story of Madame Butterfly and her tragic love affair. Well, Charles Sweeney invites us to a sort of alternative ending of the famous opera. However, his short film, ' The Vow ', doesn’t take place i
Film reviewA Swedish Defence
We know it’s hard to believe, but there are some movies where the theme of war can be funny. Obviously, we don’t mean that ' A Swedish Defence ' is a comedy, but Simon Elvås manages to find the right dosage to creat

Film reviewStuck in the Sand
' Stuck In The Sand ' is the kind of short film whose action you have seen somewhere before, but the way it is built gives you the same intensity that you felt at first. Kendall Christianson proves, in fact, through this
Film reviewSkilleveien
When we hear about movies that address the theme of religious cults, we certainly expect a drama-thriller that explores some of the purest manifestations of evil. However, ‘ Skilleveien ’ takes distance from this for
Film reviewHorizon
One of the most interesting aspects of any quality dystopia is not necessarily the magnitude of the political, ecological, or religious catastrophes defining the fictional universe but the way in which the characters acc
