M Soup,

M Soup, (2023) by Stephanie Mavi Garcia Panclas (SMGP), is their first experimental short film. M Soup, follows the character ‘M’ played by SMGP themselves, in which they play around with appearing hyper-masculine and hyper-feminine. This experimental short film can have as many layers as there needs to be or none at all. The goal is for it to be visually confusing and jarring yet have bits and pieces of meaning.

The Day I Died

A creepy synthesizer score underlines the melodramatic horror of this cautionary mini-drama. It's a "great day for the beach" when our handsome, likable California surfer-blond hero runs into some pals. Unused to alcohol, he gets very high on buddy Joe's vodka (stashed in a 7-Up bottle), leaving him ill-equipped to drive the car he's just brought home. Things get ever more ghoulish as he witnesses the bleak and tearful events that follow his tragic demise. One assumes many a classroom was left either giggling or traumatized (or both) as he screams his final pleas to God as he's being buried. That's edutainment!

Mother's Day

Accepting the potentialities of the medium to manipulate both time and space, Broughton brings past and present head-on as he regards with adult feelings his childhood family and friends. Grown-ups romp like children, and by their magnified infantilism playfully underscore such basic traits as sadism, sensuality, arid egocentricity. (Melbourne International Film Festival)
