Short Film Corner: Never On Time (2020)

Hello my friends and welcome back to Short Film Corner. Many of us film lovers are fans of old shorts, but when it comes to modern films we watch the features and miss most of the short films. However there are many great shorts still being made today. That is what Short Film Corner is for. This is not a place for film history or critical examination. Rather I will just be posting videos of shorts I really like. Today's short is a brand new film from Pakistani filmmaker Halar Khoso called Never on Time.

The description of  this film on his YouTube page is "Never on time is an experimental short film shows a day in the life of a student who lives away from home and dreams of going college on time but even in his dreams being on time is just a dream. Sometimes this situation is not in our hands and letting go is always the best option. 

"My special love for mom, her voice got recorded, that was the actual call made to my mom during the filming of this short. At times keeping things spontaneous could bring a different charm into your work. 

"This film is based on real experiences. I hope you relate and enjoy it! Love."

Hello my friends and welcome back to Short Film Corner. Many of us movie lovers are fans of old shorts, but when it comes to modern films we watch the features and miss most of the great shorts. That is what Short Film Corner is for. This is not a place for film history or critical examination. Rather I will just be posting videos of recent shorts I really like.

Short Film Corner: Top Floor (2020)

We movie buffs are a strange people. We are obsessive watchers of old short films. Yet when it comes to modern movies we watch the features and are mostly unfamiliar with the shorts. That is why I have this new installment on my blog called Short Film Corner. These posts will not feature critical commentary or historical insight into these films. Rather I will just occasionally select a recent short (my definition of a short is any movie running under 40 minutes) that I really liked and share a video of it to this blog, so this way you can see these great overlooked movies too. First up is a very recent short from Pakistani filmmaker Halar Khoso entitled Top Floor (2020). Enjoy.
