		Wunderkammer \| Andrea Pallaoro USA 2008 \| 15 MIN. An aging woman and her son struggle to coexist in a house that shelters a spectacular menagerie of birds. Surrendering to their codependence, inside a world that bears no exit, they go about their bedtime ritual resisting and succumbing to each other’s needs. Within the everydayness of their gestures and movements lurks a secret, and the anticipation of what might come is the dawning question.


		Whore \| Isabelle McEwen Germany 2006 \| 4 MIN. The film shows a poetic-pornographical vision of hell. A whore speaks and beyond the very real of the images that she evokes, the short episode breaks into the realm of myth.


		Some of an Equation \| Burke Roberts USA 2007 \| 8 MIN. An 8 minute film executed in all one shot - about just how very very bad things can go in only a few minutes.


		Jur \| Alexander Felsing & Tobias Sparrman Sweden 2007 \| 15 MIN. The story follows a man who lives by himself in the forest. The background of the man is unknown. We follow him through every day situations. Situations that might look odd through our eyes. The film is a celebration of the nature as it is: mystic and obvious. A nature wich we are a part of.


		Make my Day \| Pelle Moller Denmark 2008 \| 9 MIN. Peter is injured after being bullied at school. At the hospital Peter faces the man who bullied his father when they were kids.


		The Night Wood \| Kangmin Kim USA 2008 \| 4 MIN. Firework awakes a forest at night, and the night wood invites us to beautiful place where wood, owl, stream, and giraffe form a wonderful sight. Later, the sun comes up and the night disappears.


		The Cave: An Adoption of Plato´s Allegory in Clay \| Michael Ramsey USA 2007 \| 4 MIN. An excerpt from Plato's Republic, the 'Allegory of the Cave' is a classic commentary on the human condition. We have adapted and brought it to life by shooting over 4,000 still photographs of John Grigsby's wonderful claymation. The look was achieved by use of candlelight in a real fire that burned at the back of the set.


		Looking thru the B-Sides \| Saiman Chow USA 2008 \| 8 MIN. “Looking Thru The B-Sides” follows the adventures of a skater named “Ollie” as he is off on a quest to find his lost skateboard. What starts off as a casual trip to the skate park, turns into a wild trip down the rabbit hole and ends up in a way that Alice In Wonderland could never imagine. What trip would be complete without a butt-chinned painter, skating underwear, and bacon to grind on? Part adventure, part love story, always ready for the unexpected – come along as we go Looking Thru The B-Sides. » Trailer
