WALKING ON THE WILD SIDE Shorts Program

Leave it to the Europeans to help us understand matters of the heart. This captivating program of shorts range from romantic to poignant, passionate to funny, and from sweet to just plain offbeat.

In the charming ENCHANTED, a boy, a girl, a doll and the mischievous mind of a child set a young man on a course to his destiny. The interrogation of a murder suspect may be what it takes to help keep a police detective’s marriage intact in the strong and subtle ORDINARY LOVE.

An anticipated romantic rendezvous is at the core of THE FIRST TRAIN, after a taxi driver picks up a fare that may change his future. Continuing on the lighter side, WALKING ON THE WILD SIDE is a quirky look at one man’s awkward pursuit of a pretty girl. The conclusion of this curious quintuplet addresses a misalignment of the stars in SUMMERTIME, as a young girl realizes she is born too late when the older man she falls in love with turns out to be her mother’s boyfriend.

These five entertaining shorts from across the pond bring us one step closer to figuring out our simplest yet most complex emotion-love.
