Tom on Mars

As a filmmaker myself and the Executive Director at the Boston International Festival with the goal to encourage and support the work of worldwide independent filmmakers I strongly recommend to see Andrei Severny's short "Tom On Mars". This short shows the strongest qualities of the director's film-making. It has a unique sense of sensuality, visual taste and live interest toward the subject. I absolutely love the developed obscure idea of a physical body in space using very simple (low budget) yet very clever technique. I also like the symbolism of the stop-motion scenes which expose accelerated feelings of confusion, turbulence, loneliness and inner struggle. I appreciate fluidity of the beautifully shot and professionally edited film. I believe that Andrei Severny has a great visual taste which is one of the major keys in succeeding.
