Dir: Esben Tonnesen / Denmark / 2006

La Piattaforma


Dir: Laura Chiossone / Italy / 2004
This short movie seems to be very much a topic of controversy on YouTube with arguments about ideals of beauty and of what makes a good story but perhaps something that stirs debate is something that made you think. Does it really matter that there is no obvious story line to this short movie, or are the true stories suggested to us through the characters?
