Washroom Vibes is pretty much one’s worst nightmare come true when watching a horror film: a ghost
in the house. A boy is watching a horror flick on his phone. There are strange sounds around him but
since he is tuned in, one is led to believe that it is noise emanating from the phone. He is
engrossed on his phone which takes it along with him to the washroom. The nightmare follows and big,
bloody things occur rapidly. <br><br>
A reservation against the film that the viewer might have is that it surrenders too quickly, with no twists or turns, while the material could have
been explored further.

Washroom Vibes | Short Film Nominee

Polaroid is about a man and his relationship with photographs. He sees them as time machines, as
tokens of memory, as objects of nostalgia. He seems to possess a relationship of attachment with them.
The film is sketched and put together through the photos he took, the photos he continues to take, and his
musings about life. <br><br>
Polaroid remains an endeavour to engage with one's memories and the manner in which they come to alter our understanding of our lived reality, and perhaps aims to invoke the same sentiment in the viewer. It seeks to make the mundane, beautiful and spectacular. However, it is unable to fully commit to that
purpose because it is held back by the narrative which puts the man at the centre, not the world that he
wishes to capture.
