Slamdance shorts -CATHEDRAL, PLATFORM, SCARLET RED, LITTLE BERLIN and VISITORS


CATHEDRAL
This is a neat animated film where we, nominally, follow a row of marching ants.


PLATFORM
Visually stunning mix of live action and animation that sees delivery services as a video game or phone app. The result is some truly “that is so cool” images that will make you want to hit the rewind button to see it again.


SCARLET RED
Excellent techno update of Poe’s Masque of the Red Death. It has a tactile and visceral quality that leaves on feeling disturbed. Recommended


LITTLE BERLIN
The true story of a cow in a small German town separated from its herd by the iron curtain. Magnificently narrated by Chistoph Waltz the film is both funny and incredibly bitter sweet thanks to Waltz’s note perfect narration.

Easily one of my favorite films of Slamdance


VISITORS
Wicked and gory tale of friends visiting friends. A delight
