“It’s dark out…”
Cinequest presents this year’s batch of strange, malevolent and just plain bizarre shorts that can only be described as Mindbenders. The stories they tell are sometimes grounded in the here and now, sometimes off in places our minds usually fear to tread, and sometimes in places that are a little bit of both. Here live stories of dead-end jobs, opera singers facing the loss of their instrument, creators willing to sacrifice much of themselves in order to fund their project, and worlds where relationships are heavily-regulated. Live-action and animation come together in this series that will leave you wondering what just happened.
