'Turning' | Best Short Film

To the right is the mesmerizing trailer for 'Turning' by Karni & Saul which we are thrilled to announce has been nominated for a 2011 BAFTA for Best Short Film.

You can watch the film in its entirity on the BBC website HERE.

Synopsis:

On his sixth birthday Robert receives three beautiful old birds in his mother’s sitting room. A memory of an afternoon visualized through his eyes, with free spirited imagination - soaring and naïve yet wonderfully dark. A gift scuttles across the floor... blue icing is nibbled, tea is sipped, lacey slips shifted, and between knobbly knees strange visions appear. The ladies weave an extraordinary tale of an emperor with no skin which grows like a vine and while the boy himself, older and wiser for his age, adds his own ending...
