Although initially convoluted, this serves to slowly draw you in and grip you.

whistle (2002)

"If I can just talk to her."
We follow a hitman's (Dominic Mafham) mundaine daily life, as he fills his time between jobs. Then one goes wrong oadand he kills a child...
A 30 minute short that's well made but fails to engage me emotionally in the lives of these people. Or to care about their ultimate fate.

moon (2009)

"I hope life on Earth is everything you remember it to be."
A mining facility on the moon is manned by Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell), who is coming to the end of his three year solo work detail. His only companion is GERTY (Kevin Spacey), a talking computer. Then Sam has an accident, one that will change his life forever.
A well made and interesting film, but one that lacked an emotional connection for me, even though there are a lot of emotions within the film.
