NO ROOM
The battle between people and cars a city street
Having an Eastern European feel to it NO ROOM is an amusing take on the the centry old battle between pedestrians and motorists. If you've lived in a city or busy town, you'll completely understand this film
WHEREABOUTS
A 2 minute NYC tale of a day out.
A small joy
BUTTERFLY
This Oscar nominated short ndid not work for me. Blame the visual style which is in the same school as Paul Gauguin (who I like), but this painted animated film never clicked with me.
Not a fan of the artistic style
Based on the life of Holocaust surviver and Olympic swimmer Alfred Nakache's life, the film drifts through time as he meditates on his past while swimming.
AUTOKAR
A young girl takes the train from Poland to Belgium and imagines all the passengers as different types of animals. This is a sweet little film about how a little girl sees the world. It will make you smile.
THE GIRL WHO CRIED PEARLS
I've run a review for this Oscar nominated film a couple of times and it can be found here.
BEAST OF THE SEINE
The true story of a beast who threw children into the Seine and the dog who sames them.
This is an amusing film that is, in its way, the ultimate shaggy dog story.
(I covered this collection via a screening link. I mention this because the web page for the collection listed the folowing film as part of it, however it was not part of the screner I was given)
CLARA TAKES THE WHEEL
This film will make you feel good as it makes you laugh out loud. This is the wonderful story of Clara, who on her birthday gets a driving lesson from her dad, that goes sideways.
Told with love and a sense of having lived it this film is an absolute delight. You need to see this.
