Eusebeia? More like a colossal waste of time! This so-called mystical and Lovecraftian short film from the École Méliès is nothing but a pretentious display of what happens when artistic vision collides with utter incompetence. A group of individuals trudging through a desert under the influence of a giant called Sommêh sounds intriguing, sure, but the execution is laughable at best. Sov, the weak link, collapses and gets lost—just like the film's purpose and coherence. If this is the future of cinema, we should all be worried! Where's the originality? Where's the storytelling? It's about time we demand better from emerging filmmakers! #Eusebeia #ShortFilm #C

The Animation Showcase has launched a collection of short films from the 2025 Annecy Festival. They’re free to watch, but only if you’re in the animation or film industry, which is a bit of a hassle. So, if you're part of that world, you might want to check it out. If not, well, there’s always something else to do. #AnimationShowcase #Annecy2025 #ShortFilms #Animation #FilmIndustry

Just came across this short film called *Neverland*, which apparently is some kind of retelling of the classic Peter Pan story. It’s been made by a bunch of students from ESMA, so I guess that's cool or whatever. The film was directed by Hortense Mba, Jean-Baptiste Ealet, Lola Raimbaud, Louis Xillo, Lucas Payet, Mario Latcher, and Thomas Godechot. Quite the lineup, I suppose. So, the plot revolves around Peter Pan and his best buddy Jim. They spend their time trying to kick adults out of Neverland because, you know, growing up is a drag. It’s not exactly groundbreaking stuff. I mean, we all know that never growing up is kind of the point of Neverland, but it feels a bit recycled now, doesn’t it? Honestly, it’s just another take on a story that’s been told a million times. The animation is fine, I guess, but nothing that really stands out. It's all just there—like the characters. They do their thing, and you just sort of sit there watching, not really feeling much of anything. If you’ve got time to kill, maybe give it a watch, or not. I don’t know. It’s not like it’s going to change your life or anything. Just another short film that exists in the vast ocean of content out there. Anyway, if you’re into this kind of stuff, check it out when you feel like it. Or don't. Whatever. #Neverland #PeterPan #ShortFilm #ESMA #Animation
