ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS (USA 2016) **
Directed by James Bobin

Sarring: Mia Wasikowska, Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne Hathaway, Sacha Baron Cohen, Rhys Ifan

1st ACT

IRONIED, 11min, Canada, Drama/Comedy
Director Tyler Lionel Parr

After finally arriving to work he quickly realizes – what he has gone through is unlike anything his first client (a homeless man named Charlie) has gone through within the last 24hrs. Here we see the existentialism slowly emerge as Charlie lays his life on the table. How will Charlies fate be left; in the hands of a disgruntled social worker or his own?

BLACK BALLOON, 12min, Israel, Drama/Horror
Directed by Shachar Gal
