Not feeling the holiday spirit in these gloomy, pre-apocalyptic times? Maybe this will help—a charming little unbranded short film from England by Nick Scott, now repped for commercial work by Crossroads Films. It features a school-portrait photographer who accosts his pint-size subjects with questions about grownup problems—economic, environmental, and then personally painful. The kids mostly shrink even smaller in confusion, but not one girl—who insists on smiling through it all, giving the photographer some much-needed perspective on his troubles.
