Truly excellent set of short films. Henry, revealed from the perspective of an elderly man with dementia, was brilliant. The Oscar winner, Curfew, was compelling and fantastically acted. Both films featuring young boys (Afghan and Somali) were almost unbelievably poignant.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I had never gone to see the short nominated live action films in theatrical release but went at the urging of my son, a film major. I was taken aback with the quality of the storytelling. I was moved, entertained and never bored. All 5 films are excellent. Two of them show children in utter poverty but hope and humor put these children in a different perspective. I personally identified with the Canadian film. It is better than "Amour".
Don't miss this experience.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Although these films are available on Itunes they were obviously intended for theatrical viewings. It's fantastic to see that these international story tellers have places to screen there work and share stories.
My favorite short film of this screening was the "THE PIG".
Well worth effort.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
