Little Things

Synopsis

Four-year old Chloe sees a man shoplifting and asks her mum if she too can 'shop like the man.' Mum-distracted and on the phone agrees, only aware of what has been going on when a Security Guard stops them at the check-out. The Security Guard asks Chloe to identify the man she was copying, but preferring the dapper thief to the greasy Security Guard she pretends he has gone. As Chloe and embarrassed mum leave the store, the thief drops a chocolate bar from his coat as a reward for Chloe's help.

Drama
A drawing of a girl in a forest by a pond, above it you can see the title 'A Time Before' A Time Before

Director: Leo Metcalf

Year: 2024

Olly sifts through his memories searching to understand why he is the way he is. The narrative swings between two contrasting worlds: his memories of his first years, captured by his childhood drawings, and surreal underwater live-action scenes representing his dreams. We witness fragmented memories of a torn family - an abusive father, a mother whose memory seems faded, and a sister, Sally, encouraging her little brother to escape through imagination and dreams. As memory and fantasy blur, The Time Before becomes a meditation on the stories we tell ourselves to survive, and what is lost in the telling. Official Selection Aesthetica Film Festival 2024
