Cold Star

A public swimming pool is transformed into a utopia where sexual orientation and gender binaries does not matter. German director Kai Stänicke describes his 7 minute short film Cold Star as a mixture of a short and a music video. A hybrid, that connects the emotions of a short with beats and lyrics of the music. The film is an appeal for acceptance of your own and others sexual identity.

The sublime cinematography combine with the short being dialog-free is what really makes this work for me. I love it and the music from the German band Din [a] Tod.

If you don't want to be nude, wear a suit

Just watched some of American photographer and filmmaker Bruce Weber's old work. Kinda like this piece that he did 2 years back. Real classy. A bit of info about how this short film came about. Weber was commissioned by Yves Saint Laurent’s Creative Director Stefano Pilati to shoot and direct this short film that made its debut at the presentation of the YSL Collection Homme Fall Winter 2010-2011.

It was screened before Pilati’s Yves Saint Laurent men’s wear show. Titled “Ain’t Nothing Like the Real Thing. This short does show a fair bit of skin and the boys are cute. Need I say more to entice you..........

Heart

Heart 2010 

Damien is compelled to follow his heart for one last chance at happiness. 
Watching out for him are Fiona and Doc who prove that family isn't always who 
you're born to but who's got your back.

This 14 minute Irish short film is all about friendship. Written and directed by Mark Cogan, Heart is beautiful and moving. Damien wanted to confess his love for his "ex-boyfriend" before it's too late. (He is getting married) He does not have enough courage to do it, so he takes along his friends for support. This short is magnificent from beginning to the end, It just grabs you and drags you along. It would have been seriously depressing if not for the humour added at exactly the right places. I love the scene where Doc stood up for Damien - "Noboby calls my friend a faggot except me". It was quite a heart warming scene. Heck, who needs family if you have friends like Fiona and Doc.....
