5. Boogaloo and Graham – How many short films do we need about the Irish Troubles? Ones like this the setting is superfluous. ⭐️⭐️
4. Parvanah – If you thought this story migrant worker befriending a native Swede in Switzerland would fall into the same pitfalls of the fine but overly preachy The Visiter, you'd be wrong. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
3. Aya – Clever idea, fine performances and script make it easy to overlook the crummy ending. Lovely scene that examines the sensuality of classical piano playing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
2. The Butter Lamp ❤️ – Brilliant ideas on how to construct a film with no obvious plot in sight, while also cleverly using a static camera to its best. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
1. The Phone Call – Some films aim to find new and interesting ways to tell a story (see: The Butter Lamp) while a film like this aims to be perfect in its execution.… and it mostly achieves that goal. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Odds? Probably The Phone Call
