Short Film Competition
Dir: Various
80 mins

Questioning power and boundaries, these films blur the line between experimental and documentary to reflect on the state of the world.

3000 feet from the ground, men look like ants: Find Fix Finish, based on real accounts, puts us in the position of American drone pilots operating in the Middle East. Martin Bureau takes us to Northern Ireland, where on July 11th every year, Protestant celebrations culminate in spectacular Bonfires. Equally spectacular is P.O.V, that looks at the dynamics of peer pressure in a group of thrill-seeker alpha males. If the points of view vary, the protagonists of this programme are linked by a common goal: marking their territory.
