I remember in 2016 when we cheerfully echoed the phrase ‘May you live in interesting times’. It seems the world has become a smaller, darker and more turbulent place since then. Is there yet a place, a case to be made, for optimism?
Thankfully, artists think so. These short films seem to condense the beauty and the darkness of our new world, and urge us continually towards creative action. Pat Wilson Smith
