THE STATION (dir. J. Wat)
The old lady excitedly awaited her little girl at the train station. As time ticked by, there was still no sign of her daughter. Turned out she had got onto the wrong platform! To rescue her little girl, the old lady would have to get through the sea-like crowds and the mountain-high stairs-- but her challenges appeared to come as much from within as from her surroundings. Would this all prove to be too much for the old lady to save what she treasures the most?At the end of the film, the camera rotates around the Granny and reveals that the little girl is in fact, a grown up. Yet the Granny still sees her as her little girl, that is why she is having the illusions and drowning in the imagination that her precious girl is in danger.Everyone can find this relatable --there is always a parent or a guardian who still sees us as young and fragile, no matter how much we have grown.
C. A. T.
'I'm known for my grace and my curiosity...' Designed with the rich look and moody irony of a classic 1940's Noir film, C. A. T. is a wry homage to classic movies, and a celebration of the infuriating glory of cats. An alluring and remote low-voiced woman (une chatte fatale, as it were) sings to us of her unmistakable feline nature. A shadowy upright-bass player is seen now and then, accompanying the cat's slow and confident jazz song. Sandra Boynton wrote, designed, and directed this stylish and clever short film. It stars her daughter, Darcy, performing the track she sings on the 2017 Boynton/Ford record album, HOG WILD.
City
A mesmerizing driving-beat industrial rock song, intricately timed with a wild and beautiful visual collage of New York City, intercut with flashes of the song's recording session at NYC's Quad Studios. Individual words of the song now and again appear as found images in the cityscape--neon, graffiti, street signs, decayed industrial labels. Performed by Falls Mountain Cowboys. Edited by Sandra Boynton & Michael Ford; Boynton & Ford also wrote the song.
The cherry brothers
Les Frères Cerise follows the adventures of two attached cherry brothers who have completely different personalities, one is an heroic adventurer who wields a sword and the other one has more of a 'geeky' and a bit indifferent. The wild and bold cherry-brother is determined to attack the ant-eating creature who holds desperate helpless tiny ants under his captivity, also taking away the book from the geek-brother.
