WATCH+CUT IS ON VACATION !
ENJOY ALL THE FILMS THAT ARE BEEN SCREENED ONLINE !
NEW UPLOADS : MID-OCTOBER 2009!
CHEERS..



GMT

What's the connection between thread and film?
Do these spools of thread bring anything to mind?
Film reels maybe?

These little gems I found on the internet are like bits of handicrafted embroidery that you can only discover in the best kept of households..
They all have English subtitles when necessary, and are always short and sweet..

Every Wednesday a new short film , available to everyone of you online during the whole week.

A short movie for a long week.
Enjoy..

Πολύ πολύ ωραίο. Ευτυχώς που υπάρχουν ακόμα καλλιτέχνες που δεν φοβούνται να εκθέσουν τα συναισθήματα τους. Ευτυχώς για όλους εμάς

Διαβάσα μόνο γυναικεία σχόλια, αλλά δεν νομίζω ότι μόνο τα κορίτσια μπορουν να εκτιμησουν το φιλμ...

(ειδική μνεία στο anιmation που συνελαβε και την πιο ανεπαισθητη κινηση του ανθρωπινου σωματος, η οποια ομως ειχε την σημασια της..)

"I've read only womens' comments on the film, although I think that not only feminine viewers are able to appreciate it.
This was the best film screened until now on Watch+Cut.
Especially those detailed animated moves of the hug in the beginning and the end where most remarkable."
