THE PHONE CALL
THE PHONE CALL – Directed by Mat Kirby, is an incredibly moving 22 minute British short film which WON the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film.
WORKING POOR

THEODORE’S GIFT
THEODORE’S GIFT (15:24) is a short film about Iris (Ella Watkins), a naive young woman who sets out to escape her austere upbringing, only to discover that she is ill prepared for what the journey will bring.
DANNI
One of the central tenets of film acting is “Less is more.” In DANNI, a short film written by and starring Jeana Reilly, less is much more. As the title role in the riveting 24-minute film, Reilly delivers a skillfully restrained performance that speaks great emotional volumes.
The Wave

Calumet
CALUMET opens up with a haunting sound of a locomotive train whistle. The first visual in the film is a vase of dead white daisies. A symbolic film – yes.
Irene & Marie
IRENE & MARIE is a beautiful short drama about the relationship between two older friends of Greek Orthodox faith.
