Right Place : Awesome Japanese [very] short movie

Via Digg, found this great short movie called “Right Place” at YouTube, directed by Kosai Sakine

 

 

Right Place is an ‘almost silent’, five and a half minute movie. It tells the story of a young man with OCD, for whom working in a late-night convenience store is patently not a suitable career path. Walking home in the rain after being thrown out of his job, he finally discovers the right place in life that he’s been searching for …

“Right Place” was reported by “shots” as the most highly praised film at Asia-Pacific Advertising Festival in 2005. The showcase was held under the sponsorship of JAC (Japan Association of TV commercial Companies); young directors from five countries made films on the theme of “Fear No Change”.

Doll Face by andrewhu

 

A machine with a doll face mimics images on television screen in search of a satisfactory visage. Doll Face presents a visual account of desires misplaced and identities fractured by our technological extension into the future. Spell bounding CGI and out of the box thought process too!
