Random NYAFF Shorts

GOOD MOURNING
A woman who works at a funeral home reflects on life as funeral happens.

Good just sort of there film  seems to exist to have a couple of clever moments but it never pulls it all together.

 

BOY FROM OUTER SPACE
When a boy disappears a detective investigates and finds he maybe an alien.

Okay film feels like to is building up to something greater than it does.  Sound and fury signifying something.

 

STILLS MOVING
A sculptor with ALS has one of her sculptures come to life. This is a sweet little film that is hard to discuss because the film is in the payoff.


Sammi, Who Can Detach His Body Parts
Wildly off kilter film about a mother trying to recover the body parts her son gave away.  Kind of mauldin film is a throw back to the sort of films that NYAFF rarely runs any more. It’s a weird examination of the bits of us that we leave behind.

 

Little Rebels Cinema Club
A bunch of kids decide to make a zombie film with a camcorder.

Love letter to the power of movies and the desire to create them If you were ever a kid and shooting your own films you will fall madly in love with this gem of a film.
