The 2nd X Fest Short Film Collection
(Worldwide - up to 2010)

HORRORFEST PROMO CLIP
(South Africa)
Dir: Paul Blom

BECAUSE THERE ARE THINGS YOU NEVER FORGET...
(PORQUE HAY COSAS QUE NUNCA SE OLVIDAN...)

(Spain / Argentina)
Dir: Lucas Figueroa
Winner of over 100 awards.
Set in Italy, 1950, this absolutely brilliant short film has a group of young kids playing soccer in the street. When the "evil grandma" intercepts their ball, they plan to exact a sweet revenge. The best soccer-themed movie you're likely to see outside of the world cup hype!
HD - 35mm

CAM SHOT
(Canada)
Dir: Eric Falardeau
An erotic 8mm experimental short melding sexuality, celluloid and its fetishistic possibilities

THE TERRIBLE OLD TRAN
(USA)
Dir: Armando D. Munoz
A hilariously twisted pervy take on H.P. Lovecraft's tale, The Terrible Old Man.
Munoz' previous creations "Pervula" and screened at previous installments of The South Africa HORRORFEST and X FEST respectively.

"SIEK+SAT" - TERMINATRYX music video
(South Africa)
Dir: Paul Blom

23 RUE D'AMOUR

(South Africa)
A classic surreal love story.
What bigger sacrifice than to give yourself to your lover? Completely. Without boundaries...
Love conquers all.
Dirs: Ronnie Belcher & Dr-Benway

NOCTURNO CON BRANDY

(Spain)
It is the 1950s. A man wakes up to the voice of a former employee - explaining
his revenge plot in detail...
B&W 35mm
Dir: Linker

SCISSU
(Germany)
In the seedy world of drugs & sex, there is such a thing as going too far... Shot on Super-16mm.
Dir: Tom Bewilogua

PUPPY LOVE
(South Africa)
Love can get crushed so easily...
Dir: Robin Ogden

TROPEZONES
Dir: David Macian & Eduardo Molinari
He's crazyy about food... She'll do anything to please him. A perfect romance - as long as there is something left in the fridge.
After this twisted romantic comedy you'll never look at food (or your spouse) in the same way again!

Dir: Gilles Daubeuf
