Review: "THE CLEARING"

Director: Jack Gastelbondo
Running Time: 10 minutes
Genre: Thriller
IMDB Page

The Clearing is an intense thriller about a man living in a society that has installed microchips in the back of everyone's skulls to control thought, temper violence and keep people in line. Taught and thought provoking, the acting and dialogue make for a world of intrigue and subtle tyranny.

Review: "HEART BOX"

Director: Geoff Yano
Running Time: 11:48
Genre: Drama

Heart Box is the story of a robot who falls in love. Despite mediocre technical elements the robot is made to seem able to move and even love on its own. The plot is easily related to even if the protagonist is artificial.

Review: "TRUE BEAUTY THIS NIGHT"

Director: Peter Besson
Running Time: 10 minutes
Genre: Comedy, Drama
IMDB Page

True Beauty This Night is a very, very different kind of love story. First-rate technical elements and acting combine with a quirky but very funny plot so far out of left field that the audience never sees any of the multiple plot twists coming. Energetic and innovative, it gives whole new meaning to 'love at first sight.'
