As Sundance draws to a close we’ve pulled together a couple of shorts that delighted at this year’s festival so you can get a taste of the rarely spoken of short program.
First up is one of six films the Austin-based Zellner Bros. had at Sundance this year. This one is a mockumentary short that Badass Digest calls “an astonishing, moving and uplifting look at a real Sasquatch birth, caught in the wild. Amazing that they were able to be there to get this footage.” I’d say it’s a simulated home vid of a Big Foot squeezing out a baby.
The second is a music video for Das Racist’s ‘Who’s That Brooown,’ which Cinematical describes as “an 8-bit animated music video that follows Das Racist around New York as they attempt to replace Jay-Z and Justin Bieber at a concert after their shared stretched hummer is hit by a meteor. Join the duo on an adventure that finds them battling yuppie gentrifiers on the subway, ducking golf balls in Murray Hill and crossing the East River without getting run over — all while randomly avoiding Sarah Palin in a bikini.” I’d say that about covers it.
If you like the look of this vid, you can play the game here. But I warn you – it’s addictive!
What do you make of these zany Sundance shorts?
