9 MINUTES

Imagine this: You are sleeping in a isolated house in an empty desert in Joshua Tree with only your dog for a companion, when you are suddenly awakened with a loud bang. You try to find the source of the loud, jolting sound when things suddenly move, the house shakes, and everything turns pitch black. You black out and only a nine-minute video on your phone is the key to explain what happened within those lost minutes.

Obama finds that he must convince the vampire society that opposing political philosophies can coexist or else the society may transform Obama to the dark side.

A sure heart-melter, John and Joe shows an emotionally moving story of a father... told in a unique way.

It was directed by The Rauch Brothers and was produced by Lizzie Jacobs and Mike Rauch.

It's adorable. It's safe. And it just wants to be your friend. Blinky will definitely paint your dreams in bloody red. Written, directed, and edited by Ruairi Robinson and funded by the Irish Film Board, this 12-minuter suspense film tells the story of a young boy who purchases a robot helper to be his playmate. But just like any child, the boy gets bored with Blinky and puts all of his frustrations and childhood pangs on the poor robot. As Blinky's system reboots, things turn out viciously bad.
