Inside and insane

Director: Trevor Sands
Country: USA



Plot
A summer day in 1964, a dacha near Moscow, a playing child, adults who are about to go to the river. Through these pastoral images pierces the sound of a typewriter importunately: in this dacha a “samizdat” (self-publishing) typography is at work. In the evening when the next issue of the magazine is ready, a black car drives up to the house…

The Other Half of the business

Director: Alvaro de la Herran
Country: Spain

“This is a tale, a fable, about a system where the obedience is a philosophy and the pressure a routine.

This is my second short film, and I learn a lot about how to work with people that you never meet before. There is some kind of unrealistic way to approach the story that I love it. We builded all the sets except the office entrance, and we worked with “tilt & swift” lens in several shots.”

A bug can change your life…

Title: Spider
Year: 2006
Country: Australia
Director: Nash Edgerton
Production Company: Blue Tongue Films
Funded by: Qoob

Spider is a 9-minute action-thriller that gives an all-new meaning to old Peugeots, stunning blondes and love-jokes. The movie, written by Nash Edgerton and David Michod and soundtracked for the occasion by Australian singer-songwriter Ben Lee, was shot on location in Sydney and features in the cast Nash himself (as Jack) and rising star of the Australian film scene Mirrah Foulkes (as Jill).
Just remember: it’s all fun and games until someone loses an eye.

Special:
Cut scene

Miguel and Dani

are waiting for a guy who’s going to sell them some guns. Dani loves action movies. Miguel doesn’t like to argue with his wife. Both of them love guns. They feel secure, strong, respected with them. They don’t have any fear of the guns… Miguel y Dani esperan a un tipo que les va a vender unas pistolas. A Dani le gustan las películas de acción. A Miguel no le gusta discutir con su mujer. A los dos les encanta las pistolas. Se sienten seguros, fuertes y respetados con ellas. No les dan ningún miedo…
Indiematik loves spanish cinema and his evolution through this years (Alastio has made a spanish cinema thesis). Guns never appears in this intimate short that seems to talk about faces more than objects. A story about language and feelings that Tarantino would have appreciated.
