When a short film decides to sing

The musical short is a small, brave genre. It bets that a song can carry feeling faster than dialogue ever could, then stakes the whole film on getting the music right. There are only a few of these, and that scarcity is part of the appeal. Each one is a complete emotional arc set to performance, with nothing to hide behind.

Within These Walls follows two musicians as they delve into their feelings for each other, the songs doing the confessing the characters cannot. The Night We Called It A Day reunites two ex-lovers for one last gig, old wounds and lingering desire surfacing between numbers, and BONGO turns its rhythm into a cautionary tale of false connections and toxic relationships. Three films, three very different ways to use a song, every one free to play.
