The Bravest, the Boldest

"Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel, never ending or beginning on an ever-spinning reel." Time and reality are fractured with lives changed and perceptions altered in these memorable shorts. A mother in a housing project has a date with destiny when two soldiers come to call on her in Moon Molson's powerful The Bravest, the Boldest(US 2014, 16 min). Ollie Verschoyle’s examination of interconnectedness takes a riff on Proust in his sweetly mysterious Madeleine(UK/US 2015, 10 min). A grocery store trip is an exercise in empathy for an elderly couple in Lee Briggs' Baby (US 2014, 7 min). Early morning can be the best time for ruminations on God and produce in Jonathan Patch's funny and observant Deep Breakfast (US 2015, 7 min). And a man is caught in an insidious time loop from which he must escape or die trying in Tali Barde's inventive DOT (Germany 2014, 27 min).
