Great Scott! - Sci-Fi/Fantasy Short Films
Gadhedo (Donkey)
Directed by: Jai Sharma | 15 min. | India, 2018.
This film is based on a folk story from Rajasthan, India; set in a small village that is stuck in time. The story unfolds the satirical journey of GORU (a naive washer man) who believes that MAATSA (the only teacher in the village) will be able to turn his donkey into a 'Man'.

Hunting Season
Directed by: Shannon Kohil | 12 min. | Canada, 2018.
Callie, (Hannah Levien) a small town gas station attendant, is at a crossroads in her life. A recovering alcoholic, Callie is struggling to move on from her past in the blue-collar community. When a violent creature escapes from a group of local hunters, it happens upon her at the station. Callie comes face to face with the beast and an unlikely bond between creature and girl will change Callies life forever, forcing her to face and conquer the demons of her past. Hunting Season is a fantasy short film set against a bleak blue-collar town in rural Canada. Our film captures what it means to be female, to be alone, and to find purpose in something strangely magical.

Funeral
Directed by: Leah Shore | 8 min. | USA, 2018.
A bereaved woman delivers a convoluted speech to a gathering of family and close friends. She then retreats to a waiting room where the surreal meets the real by a water cooler in FUNERAL, a heavy, fertile, mourning comedy.

Chose mentale
Directed by: William Laboury | 20 min. | France, 2017.
Ever since she became electro-sensitive, Ema lives isolated in her home, cut from the world. Her only link with the outside is mental, through her out-of-body experiences. But one day, two boys slid inside her house, thinking they were burglering an empty house. This meeting will throw Ema into her fears and her certainties.
