Objects of Desire - short film showcase

10/12/2013

 
Picture
The second best shorts line up of the festival.
This line up of films starts out with the clever The Lamp, an interesting spin on the perils of online dating. Other highlights include, Going South, a realistic look at a restless, small-town girl that stirs uncomfortable similarities to 
Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer. In Guns We Trust, looks at a town in the USA where guns are obligatory, Mayfly, asks whether we would choose to know our genetically predisposed lifespan, Roland, a clever and hilarious little film about a confrontation in an art supply store. The films mentioned are joined by several other remarkable stories. If there is one criticism about this festival, it is that not enough people are interested in the shorts line ups, and end up missing some of the best, well-thought-out films of the festival.
