Eran Hilleli’s short animation can be interpreted a few different ways, but certainly serves as a haunting study of nature adrift in modern times. The piece is not only highly original, but also visually captivating, its moody edginess enhanced by the original score composed specifically for the film by Ori Avni, and performed by Avi along with Daniela Spector. This work seems to embody the wisdom of the ages, making it all the more remarkable as it’s Hilleli’s graduation thesis from the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem. H/T Kuriositas

The bullets fly and the blood flows when big Bertha, a desperate armed robber, sets her sights on staging a holdup at the Last Drop supermarket and liquor store, only to encounter the never-say-die Amber, who is a force of nature within her own right. Tipping their hats to Quentin Tarantino, this French-made animated short was co-directed by four students — Thomas Dufour, Quentin Retif, Benjamin Weislo and Marc-Antoine Cesari — from L’Ecole George Méliès in Orly, outside Paris. Watch through the end of the closing credits because in a twist straight out of a horror film, the dead keep rising to make one last stab at the brass ring. H/T Kuriositas
