Film Annex is going International this week! First stop: France. And a silent film from a promising team of directors. Fragments is the story of a man living a dull life with nothing to care for but his job... until he starts receiving little pieces of paper in his mailbox day after day. First insignificant, then intriguing, these pieces of paper become his new reason to wake up in the morning. The Chivteam has succeeded in creating a moving short film that keeps us in suspense until the last frame. And they didn’t stop here! You can also watch the behind the scenes videos to learn more about their filmmaking process. You can’t get enough of the French language? Don’t look further! The French Web TV only broadcasts French-speaking videos. From short films to documentaries and interviews, discover this “je ne sais quoi” about French culture and cinema. Need recommendations? Why don’t you start with the short movie Motus, followed by an interview of filmmaker Claude Lelouch, and end with a documentary about a French chef who has brought his talent to the US. You might even pick on a few useful words for your next trip to Europe! Speaking about traveling, let’s cross the English Channel to meet a British filmmaker who has been one of our favorites since the beginning. Tim Orchard’s films are influenced by David Lynch, video games and the people who surround him. Although it's hard to classify Orchard's films in one genre, the filmmaker describes them as “British science fiction horror with a twist of black comedy”. It only takes a few minutes of watching Rough Patch to understand what he means. If you’ve ever wondered what an evil replica of yourself would be like, this short film is for you.
