- I'm at Hitachi Gtech Theater. http://4sq.com/b9YIJW #
- I just saw my favorite film of the festival, a short film that in fact brought tears to my eyes: Plastic Bag, by Ramin Bahrani. #
- Not only is this film expertly captured visually, with an incredible score, it is narrated by none other than Werner Herzog. #
- Those of you that missed the Futurescapes screening, they are available online, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. #
- I'm actually still trembling as I type this, outside of the convention center, absorbing what I just saw. #
- Perhaps it's the loneliness of covering this event by myself that has made me more susceptible, but that film cut straight to my heart. #
- If you enjoyed the subtle future shown to us in Children of Men, you must watch this series of short films, you will not be sorry. #
- The website I thought allowed you to watch the Futurescapes shorts is not working, I'll get back with a way for you to see these films. #
- I need a stiff drink after that screening, before I see anything else. Probably heading to the Paramount after this. #
- @moiseschiu I enjoyed the twist, but it didn't find it particularly inspirational right off the bat. I enjoyed how it was more cerebral. in reply to moiseschiu #
