EVENT PREVIEWS

Heartwarming

Heartwarming short Pierre West screens at the Fall 2025 New Jersey Film Festival on Sunday, September 21!

​​​​​​​A beautiful, heartwarming story of two people whose past struggles prevented their love in their youth, finding their way back to each other in the end. From emotional voiceovers that evoke shared experience and connection, to characters whose personality is so clearly depicted they seem to be jumping out of the screen – Pierre West is a short film that balances heartbreak, hope and love as perfectly tripodal as it could. Pierre Emanuel West, who is played endearingly by Tomas Hartwig, is a lonely man being haunted by the emotional trauma inflicted upon him by his father. Throughout the film, he struggles to find meaning in life nor a reason to stay. Eva Cornelia Bro, portrayed delicately, yet full of strength by Alexandra Lindqvist, is a young woman with unpleasant memories of her own who is deeply dissatisfied with her life, especially her work and lack of personal connections. One day, completely by fate, Pierre calls tech support for help with his broken television. Eva picks up the phone and what starts as a business as usual call turns into one of the most meaningful conversations either of them has had in a long time– even though they don’t discuss much. Pierre, blinded by insecurity, feels the need to lie about his life. He tells Eva he tests race cars and lies about activities he’s going to take part in. While it momentarily bred confidence in him, when Eva gives him her personal number to call whenever he pleases, Pierre is too paralyzed by the echoes of demeaning words to ever use it.

Two amazing shorts screen at Fall 2025 New Jersey Film Festival on Sunday, September 7!

One of the most interesting facets of art is how different artists can choose to represent the same themes based on their experiences in feelings. Oftentimes, subjects or ideas can manifest in different ways for certain artists, creating differences in how they depict them. One may represent a subject through a faster-moving and vibrant work, while another may portray it as gloomy and stoic.  Despite these two depictions being vastly different, they both represent the subject and how the artist connects and views it. Two great examples of this contrast of portrayals within the theme of loss are Martin Gerigk’s Prayer of the Sea and Sasha Alexander Vorobyev’s What a Surprise. These works differ greatly in their story and look, but both experiment with color and shot size to explore the complex theme of loss.
