Short film: Pumzi

This* looks very cool.

PUMZI

(I haven't figure out how to embed videos yet, but check it out.)

Dystopian sf! *hearts* It's a Kenyan short film written and directed by Wanuri Kahui and shown at the Sundance film festival in 2010.

The movie's website, and also Wired has an article about it.

I want to watch it. So, if word of mouth gets around, maybe it can get picked up by a distributor and we see it, yes?

(Thanks to @sandykidd for bringing it up.)

*I will continue to ignore Spartezda's attempts to put images of Equilibrium meets WALL-E into my mind. Just no. Besides, Pumzi wins on the prettiness factor. ;)

LOL, I forgot you didn't much like Wall-E, and uh, that was totally my first thought when I read about struggling to bring the plant to the ruined Earth's surface. Sorry, but I loved that movie! It's a GOOD association, REALLY!

Anyway, it sounds cool. I hope it does get some wider distribution. :)

*looks pained at Krispy* Well, hey, if the association makes more people watch, I will suffer in silence. O:)
