Sinécdoque (Synecdoche)

This short film features a number of Polaroids taken by a girl from when she was 3 years old to when she was 20 years old. It's an emotional journey involving family, friends, growing up, and plenty of photographs. Beautiful and heartfelt.

Equilicuá

This short film featuring Latin expressions proves that the language is certainly not dead, and that French is not necessarily the lingua franca of romantic people.

This film also tests how much Latin you know, so be prepared, and carpe diem. (Nevertheless, translations of all the Latin phrases used here will be flashed towards the end of the film.)

Despedidas

Saying goodbye is almost always the sweetest if there was someone to leave behind.

That being said, I laughed out a little too loudly for this 30-second film. Genius.
