Directors Notes: The What, How & Why of Independent Filmmaking, presents this special package of short films complied for CINECITY.
I Will Smash You – Michael Kimball & Luca Dipiero (7:15)
Stories of people smashing office environments, chairs, TVs, phones, cars and more. You’ve never seen anything like this before.
Jenifer – Stewart Copeland (4:25)
The film-maker explores his relationship with his mother through a recorded conversation between eighth-grade students and astronauts aboard the international space station.
Bathtub – M.A.Y.O. (3:25)
In a bathroom set with diamonds, white cake, and a porcelain claw-foot tub, a beautiful young woman readies for death. She’s hooked up to a machine, which instead of reading her vital signs emits a warning about the extinction of dinosaurs. In the minutes before her death, she practices a ritual to prepare herself for the unknown.
Spider – Nash Edgerton (9:00)
It’s all fun and games until someone loses an eye.
Voltage – Filipe Lyra & William Paiva (4:15)
Just like modular synthesizers, people connect with each other in order to achieve diverse objectives. In Voltage, robots, half-human and half-synthesizer, powered by a huge amount of energy, connect to each other in an electric and chaotic trance.
Altar – Nathan Bezner (18:00)
A janitor cleans the same filthy toilet every day. As he begins to remove stranger and more bizarre objects from the commode, he discovers there may be more to his situation than he’d initially realized.
Cerrado Al Publico – Poet Zero (6:10)
A police officer and the barriers of understanding – physical and otherwise.
I Love Sarah Jane – Spencer Susser (14:16)
Ah, young love. The air seems clearer. The sun seems brighter. There’s a spring in the step. Too bad about the zombie apocalypse.
