*Away*

2019 / 1 hour 15 mins

Director / Writer / Editor / Music / Art Direction / Cinematography:
Gints Zilbalodis

Country & Language: Latvia (wordless)

There’s lots of animation in the world of cinema that goes well beyond the bland offerings of Pixar. Here a boy and a small bird cross a magical island on a mysterious motorbike to, well, get back home, one supposes – and they are pursued by an ever present darkness that looks like a vaguely human-shaped sticky mass of black treacle. The boy is determined not to be consumed or trapped by this shadowy presence. Zilbalodis has made this little simple yet strange masterpiece pretty well single-handedly. It’s a surreal fairy tale about courage, fear, hope, making connections, love and struggle. Even when the animation is at its simplest it has considerable charm. It has some haunting music and sounds and never seems merely ponderous. In fact, in general, it masterfully evokes the emotion of its subject matter. Just the job, I would say, for those who enjoy experience of letting their spirits fly.

*****Murder at Curtain Call*****

2022 / 20 mins

“The cheating husband, the pregnant wife, the infamous sister-in-law. All of them have something to hide, and no one is willing to open up.” (The filmmakers)
 

Director: Javier Perez de Lema Campos

Produced by: Julia Smith & Amelia Leader

Screenwriters: Director, Julia Smith & Amelia Leader

Cast:

Paloma Lopez, Jamie Wigley, Jasmin Mitchell, Andre van Rooyen & Victor Koundourakis

Cinematography: Jessica Tooth / Editor: Danay Zemichael

Costume & Production Designer: Emma Boogaard

A professional looking job with a strong opening that introduces its story with picture and sound. It’s well performed and the dialogue is crisp. Moreover, the direction and editing build up a certain tension and the lighting has a rather tasty noir-ish feel. The film is not afraid of using a well-suited musical score and I sat through the whole thing without feeling I was merely fulfilling a duty of fairness. It takes quite some doing, I think, to fill 20 minutes at this level. It’s got a bit of a twist and a nice touch of Agatha Christie. In fact, I’ve seen less involving Hollywood jobs.
