PG13 / English / Mandarin / / 84 Mins
A showcase of 5 local short films. In A Day, That Year, a seemingly harmless punishment meted out on a 5-year-old becomes a pivotal childhood experience that will forever change him. In The Feeling of Being Close to You, the filmmaker and her mother candidly discuss intergenerational trauma and abuse in a reconciliatory phone conversation. In Mothers, three generations of women - doting grandmother, harried mother and innocent daughter -negotiate interdependence as well as differing priorities and desires. In Breaking News, 18-year-old Eliza grapples with her pregnancy and the prospect of abortion. In Lay Over, Daniel and Claudia toy with the idea of getting back together four months after their breakup.
