During a visit to Don’s house, Joris feels a suffocating sense of unease as everyone there is dead set on making him feel at home. This surrealist short is both amusing and unnerving.
Ten-year-old Joris loves to draw. He also loves his famous granddad, whom he’s never met. When his granddad becomes seriously ill, Joris sneaks into his house. An endearing little tale, with great chemistry between ‘opa’ Derek de Lint and Walter Sheean (Joris).
A wealthy woman tries to get rid of her guilt after she and her husband accidentally injure a sex worker during a reckless pursuit of ecstasy. A glossy thriller that poses interesting moral dilemmas and keeps you guessing.
