THE SHORT FILMS:

1. "THE WITNESS" (9 mins.) by Jurly Maloloy-on Jr.
A distraught student reports a crime to the police, leading them to a discovery.

2. "HAUNTED" (2004, 8 mins.) by Jerrold Tarog
Two siblings would rather go out and party than stay at home to look after their autistic sister. But avoiding this boring chore isn't the only reason why they want to get out of the house.

3. "CARPOOL" (2006, 10 mins.) by Jerrold Tarog
The film revolves around two girls, one guy and a referee -- a spinning love triangle with a Darwinian twist.

4. "TAWIDGUTOM" (2005, 3 mins.) by John Torres
Somber introspection and rapid fire editing of found and organized footage create one of the most heartbreakingly beautiful video poems about waiting for a loved one. [First episode of the "Otros Trilogy"; winner of Best Short Film, 2005 Cinemanila International Film Festival; official selection, various international festivals.]

5. "LOVE AND GLANCES" (2004, 4 mins.) by Jerrold Tarog
The film is a ditty on fickle hearts and the little games that people play.

6. "TIMBANG LATA" (2003, 15 mins.) by Herbert M. Navasca
While rehearsing at home, a gay entertainer uncovers a boy hiding inside a cabinet. [In competition, Best Short Feature Narrative, 2003 Eksperimento Film Festival.]
