Video Friday

This afternoon I’m going to see Benh Zeitlin’s Beasts of the Southern Wild with Molly and Emily, and in honor of my first movie theater-outing since the last Harry Potter film (no, I don’t get out much), I present to you Glory at Sea, the 25-minute short film from Court 13 (self-described as “a grassroots, independent filmmaking army—a collective of madcap artists and animators of junk that seek to tell huge stories out of small parts”) that preceded Beasts. Also directed by Zeitlin, Glory at Sea is another magic realist film set in a storm-savaged coastal Louisiana. 

Love it? You can buy the film at McSweeney’s as part of Wholphin No. 7 (“the DVD magazine of rare and unseen short films”).

Via.
