SHORT FILMS:

At The Edge Of Night – Philippe Sung, Brandon Fayette – Australia

Writer: Philippe Sung

Cast: Philippe Sung, Philippe Sung, Charlie Cattrall, Ashleigh Brewer, Kick Gurry, Amber Clayton

Synopsis: Set against the death metal scene in the Mojave Desert above that crazy dusty megacity of Los Angeles, At The Edge Of Night is a revenge tragedy about estranged childhood friends, Aaron and Ben who – though neither of them are able to admit it – are soul mates. On the night Ben returns to visit Aaron, it’s clear that the man he loves has moved on. But before he gets the chance to discuss their past, tragedy occurs – leaving Aaron bereft and unable to move on with his life. The deep connection they have transcends time and space, and ultimately Aaron has to either let Ben go, or join him. Part ghost story, part love story, At The Edge Of Night is an all-action mystical joyride between life, death and the meaning of it all, which places that ‘other’ world only a slight head tilt away from the everyday – sometimes glimpsed, sometimes felt, never fully seen – but always ever-present.

Miscreation – Aaron Warwick – Australia

Writer: Steven Carnuccio

Cast: Marybeth Bonnor, Steven Carnuccio, Domenic Di Mento, Lauren Lofberg, Natasha Dai, Benjamin W. Sullivan

Synopsis: When five individuals awaken in a room, each impaired in a very specific way; they have no memory of how they got there, nor any clue as to the reason they have been brought together. The only information they have is that of a mysterious girl’s dead body laying on the floor in front of them, and a note claiming that they are all in someway responsible for her death. What unfolds is a desperate search for answers that will lead them back into their past, reflecting on choices that have brought them to this moment, and the revelation that they all may have more in common than they realise.

Synopsis: A short documentary featuring Louie (KR.ONE) Gasparro and when his love for graffiti was rekindled at the legendary 5Pointz graffiti mecca in Long Island City, New York. Louie reminisces about what 5Pointz means to him and to the wider graffiti art world.
