Fantasia Short Movie: Treevenge (2008)
Treevenge (2008)
Director: Jason Eisener
Genre: Short - Horror
Country: Canada
Language: English
* Cast:
Mike Cleven ... Crew Boss
Sarah Dunsworth ... Cadence Macmichael
Lex Gigeroff ... Tree Lot Boss
Glen Matthews ... Yuppie Man
Kristin Slaney ... Yuppie Woman
Jonathan Torrens ... Jim Macmichael
*Synopsis:
Treevenge details the experiences and horrifying reality of the lives of Christmas trees. Clearly, for trees, Christmas isn’t the exciting “peace on earth” that is experienced by most.
After being hacked down, and shipped away from their homes, they quickly become strung up, screwed into an upright position for all to see, exposed in a humiliation of garish decorations.
But this Christmas will be different, this Christmas the trees have had enough, this Christmas the trees will fight back. Treevenge could be a short film about the end of days for Christmas trees, or perhaps, the end of humanity?

The Known Universe
The Known Universe takes viewers from the Himalayas through our atmosphere and the inky black of space to the afterglow of the Big Bang.
Every star, planet, and quasar seen in the film is possible because of the world's most complete four-dimensional map of the universe, the Digital Universe Atlas that is maintained and updated by astrophysicists at the American Museum of Natural History.

Roof Sex (2003)
Roof Sex (2003)
Director: Pes
Genre: Animation - Comedy - Short
Awards: 4 wins
* cast :
Michael Hannigan... Granny
Chaka Khan ... Pussy - the Cat
* Plot :
Did Lord Chesterfield and Queen Anne carry on like this? It's the classic apartment-house roof top: flat, with a low wall around it, wires and pipes everywhere, and a door to a stairwell. As the door flies open, the laughter of a man and woman at play accompanies the appearance of two stop-animated chairs - he chasing her. They mate, enthusiastically, across the roof top, changing positions, her elbows chaffing against the brick and rough edges. Later that day, their owner enters the flat and sees stuffing sticking out from tears in the upholstery of the "female" chair. Someone has to pay.
