Family Matters: A Tour of Vermont Short Films
A group of four award-winning Vermont filmmakers explore what it means to be a family in Vermont. The program features four short fiction films ranging from horror to drama. All films offer a uniquely Vermont perspective on the pains and joys of being a family. The films include “Bloodroot” by Lukas Huffman, “Bad Mother” by Molly Longwell, “I Guess It Might Be Selfish” by Eddie Shore, and “The Thaw” by Sarah Wisner and Sean Temple. Filmmakers in attendance. “Bloodroot” is a tender relationship portrait of two brothers, told over the course of their lives. In “Bad Mother,” a mother copes with her husband's confession of infidelity on the eve of a funeral. “I Guess It Might Be Selfish” is a poetic reflection on the clash between individual and family needs. “The Thaw” is a beautifully rendered 19th century Vermont horror story.
