Futureshorts Cornwall Returns!!!!

After the sellout success of last week¹s Two Minutes Silence Film challenge (of which more later), the next o-region event will be the second Futureshorts Cornwall, which will be taking place this Thursday (June 16th) at the Acorn in Penzance.

We had a fabulous response for the inaugural Futureshorts in May, and the June programme is if anything even better!

Selected highlights this month include:

• Rockin & Rollin, a stunning award winning stop-frame animation set in a pool ball’s locker room;
• Bataille, in which two samurai are fighting against each other over a woman – or perhaps the cosmos;
• We Have Decided Not To Die, a breath-taking triptych that evokes a surreal, ritualistic world whose characters appear to float free of space and time;
• Bedouin Sand, in which nine-year old Roi falls in love with a bottle of coloured sand that a Bedouin tries to sell him in Sinai;
• Brormin, a tense portrait of family dysfunction played out between two brothers in the back seat of the family car ;
• His Passionate Bride, billed as the greatest, sexiest, and shortest story ever told... ever.

Futureshorts Cornwall has got a real buzz going so you’d be mad to miss out – come and check out the films, have some drinks, and enjoy the show. Tickets are £5 and the show starts at 8pm. Judging by the popularity of last month’s event, it might be a very good idea to reserve tickets from the Acorn box office o­n (01736) 365520.
