The Gloaming



"The Gloaming" truly blew me away the first time I watched it. Combining a spectacular visual feast with an intensive critique of the history and future of human society, the short is nothing less than impressively ambitious. The film is product of a trio of directors from Paris under the name NOBRAIN, whose talents meshed together to create something really unique. I was hoping we might get a conversation going about some of the salient topics within the film. Any thoughts?

Lucky Day Forever



This film presents an interesting, gritty take on a dystopian society with an artistic style that promotes some of its more obvious themes without ever having to state them outright. Like the video, I don't intend to outright state my opinion on the issues presented here but let me just suggest that the film offers a compelling critique of the potential dangers currently facing our society. We really aren't far off from suffering a similar consequence.

Everything is Incredible



It is often that words can degrade the true meaning of what feel, and in the aftermath of such you can be left only with the shell of an experience. This documentary certainly leaves that impression, as I doubt I could say much to the effect it has left on me. Truly beautiful and inspiring on an grand scale, "Everything is Incredible" should instill a sense that well... everything is incredible.
