12 minutes short movie from André Øvredal (The Autopsy of Jane Joe, Last Voyage of Demeter and the excellent Troll Hunter from 2010) this short tells a story on a dystopic future overcrowded with people. A family caught in a huge "normal" traffic of about 5 km / hour literally walks like a line of prisoners through a gruesome high tech tunnel under the infinite high-rises that goes to the skies. The father and mom are tense but nothing shows why: The only sign that gives a hint of the tension of the drivers is a barely legible graffiti written on the side of the entrance for a couple of seconds. I can say that the production is very well done (just the cars CG is very artificial), and the premise is very dark. Clever idea but lacks maybe a bit more "punch". I would give it a score of 6,5 out of 10,0 / B.
