I found the Reel Shorts Film Festival pretty entertaining. I haven't really been to anything like that so it was nice for a change. I like how the short films had a lot of hidden meanings behind them. It took me quite awhile to figure out what a film was about. I would figure it out a few films later. "Oh! I know what that film meant now!" Sort of thing, I was pretty slow but it made sense after.
One thing I didn't really like about it, was a lot of the films were in other languages... I don't like reading, but I had to read to know what they were saying in the film. Luckily, once I got reading it got interesting enough that it didn't quite bother me as much.
My favourite film was called "Reality" (Im pretty sure that's what it was called... it might have been "Reality +" but I'm not 100%)
Basically in the film, people could pay, to be able to customize their looks. I thought of it as basically the game Sims, where you can create your own person and such. In the film you could make yourself perfect, hide your insecurities. If I was able to buy that, I probably wouldn't. I wouldn't want to worry about it wearing off, and I wouldn't want people liking me just because I am beautiful. I want them to accept me for more than that.
I really enjoyed the festival, and I would definitely go again.
