I wanted to post a link to an excellent short film that is soon to be released as a longer film, which I'm rather dubious about.
I'm referring to the short "Mama". While only a few minutes long, it has a powerfully visceral impact. While it eschews an extensive plot I think the mood it conjures says more than many feature-length films I've seen.
Its genius is in its brevity and the sincerity of its young actresses. You don't often see that level of believability in child actors, and they should be lauded for their performances.
I'll check out the full-length version when it's available for home markets, but I'm concerned that what is beautiful, and most powerful, about the short will be ruined by killing the mystery of it all.
Regardless, I highly suggest you check it out at the provided link.
