The short film is a time-honored genre. Sometimes informative, sometimes thrilling, and sometimes absolutely mind-boggling, the short film is a place where documentarians, animators, and storytellers can experiment and hone their craft on a smaller scale.
‘God Bless You, Mr. Vonnegut’ is a disappointing documentary. This film reaffirms the idea that Kurt Vonnegut was a really cool guy, interacting with the world around him in a way that few other people do. His overwhelming positivity about other people becomes sort of infectious during the film, even oddly inspirational. Yet, the documentary constructed around him is amateurish and aimless. Vonnegut is amazing, this film is not. And so it goes.
'Alaska is A Drag' may be a unique film in it’s premise, but it’s familiar in a feel-good kind of way; it’s a clever take on the sports film genre. It’s also just a feel-good movie in general: it’s lovable, sometimes dark sense of humor is very enjoyable and the leads are an absolute joy to watch. And at the core of 'Alaska' is an inspiring story for all those people who don’t fit in and have dreams bigger than their small town.
‘Nathan’s Kingdom’ is a gritty, real film that tackles familial relationships involving a developmental disorder in a way that very few films are willing to stomach. It’s tough to watch at times (sometimes unintentionally so), but the hardships make the triumphs all the more worth it. It really is a beautiful journey to watch all the way through, with an extremely satisfying and tear-jerking ending. This film is a must-watch for anyone looking for a heart-warming story about such a tough subject matter.
'93Queen' showcases the determination and accomplishments of women in the Hasidic community in a respectful, authentic way. The film makes the process of establishing Ezras Nashim's credibility the struggles faced along the way rewarding and emotional. The filmmaking and editing is smooth and engaging adding to the film's appeal.
