Emmet is a forty-eight minute long Canadian film that tells the story of a friendship and of life changing choices.
Child’s Play (1980)
Child's Play or An American Short Story is a short film released in the United States in 1980. The atmosphere of the film can easily be compared with some of the earliest adaptations of the books of Stephen King while, at the same time, the story is told in a manner not much different than one would expect to find in the tales of Hans Christian Anderson.
Cregan
Cregan is a British short film released in 2007. Filmed in the UK and Ireland, it stars Ciaran Flynn and is directed by Stephen North.
Sting (2007)
Sting (also known as Stikk ) is a short coming of age film from Norway. Written and directed by Vigdis Nielsen the film focuses on bullying. The film reveals the nature of the events that occur in the schoolyard which, while not reflected by the official records, are part of the daily life at most high schools.
Gotcha (1991)
A good portrayal of the coming of age story of twelve-year-old Marco - full of mischievous behavior and harmless pranks on the people around him.
Wanted (1994)
Short films are essential for the coming of age genre which is why they have their own category in the coming of age movie awards. Commonly most good short productions are filmed either in the Scandinavian region or UK and the film I am going to review now is not an exception.
