Film Brothers Festival of Shorts – 2nd Annual Winter

Donation

”Donation”, a short comedy film directed by Los Angeles filmmaker Paul Emerson, is about a woman named Beth, played by Dana Powell from HBO’s Veep and ABC’s Modern Family, who quickly learns that matters of the heart as related to Joe, played by Stacey Hinnen, can get just a little unsteady when you give blood three times in a single day.

Just Go

”Just Go”, a Slovakian short film shot and edited by Patrik Paulínyi, chronicles Milos Kmetko’s discovery, love, and progression of snowboarding at the age of 62. This inspiring film captures your heart and proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that age is just a number.

The Landing

”The Landing”, a short film by Australian filmmaker Josh Tanner, is about a desperate protagonist named Edward who returns to the Midwestern farm of his childhood on a frantic mission to unearth the horrifying truth of what landed there in the summer of 1960. “The Landing”, which was filmed entirely in Australia, jumps between two time-periods as we slowly discover why Edward has returned to his childhood home armed with a shovel.

Exes

”Exes”, a short film written and produced by Ali Vingiano and directed and shot by T.J. Misny, is a hilarious comedy about what’s really going through your head, illustrated through the use of subtitles, when you run into an ex.

La Carnada

“La Carnada,” a short film written and directed by Josh Soskin, follows a 13 year old boy from Tijuana, Mexico named Manny, played by Angel Gabriel Soto, as he embarks on his first drug smuggle across the “Devil’s Highway,” a notoriously fatal stretch of desert on the Arizona/Mexico border.

Victor

”Victor”, a short film written and directed by Chad Thompson, is about imagination, solitude and the sometimes blindfolded quest for happiness. This whimsical journey follows Victor, played by PJ Jacokes, a peculiar man who has some interesting ideas about how to make friends. With an optimistic plan and a few technological tricks, Victor shows that sometimes all you need is a little help to notice what’s been right in front of you all along.

The Silly Bastard Next To The Bed

“The Silly Bastard Next To The Bed”, a short film written and directed by Scott Calonico, is a documentary about the “most foul-mouthed telephone call ever made from the White House” from President John F. Kennedy. Calonico blends the historical and hilarious in a fascinating serving of quirky Americana.

Voices of Nemours

“Voices of Nemours”, an engaging documentary produced and edited by Film Brothers, features past and present staff members as well as patients of Nemours and highlights their special stories and memories.

Dream Catcher

“Dream Catcher”, a short film and/or video animated by Tom DesLongchamp, is about a magical, mystical dream catcher. The animation is set to a score composed by DesLongchamp’s friend named Les Hilliard.
