Short and Sweet

On Monday night, Leo, Farideh and I went up to London to Short and Sweet, where we sit around in a cosy dimly lit bar full of sofas and watch about 8 short films. Yesterday, the movies were quite emotional, candles were lit during one particular film, the crazy organiser cried on stage due to the meanings and depth behind them. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole evening and was told by Leo, who has been before, that the short films shown are usually very light-hearted and comical. However, the line-up for last nights gathering didn't put me off wanting to go again!

Here's a couple of the films that i enjoyed: Im guessing that these particular ones will be popular choices for Leo and Farideh to post on their blog due to our discussions yesterday. Anyway, enough rambling........




I abosolutely loved this quirky music video and was possibly my favourite piece of the evening :)

The next film just made everyone cry with laughter- just the whole randomnes of it is brilliant and is VERY entertaining :)



Check out Leo's blog for some more of these quirky films that have previously been shown and I cant wait til next week so see what's in store then :)
