Filtered by the film's length and ordered by deadline; every row carries the date we checked it and where. The film is public here, so the ones that want a premiere are marked. The festival plan says how to run the year.

The scorecard

A quiet, image-led study of a girl isolated by headphones and oxygen mask, hinting at illness and sensory overwhelm.

2.7of 5
  • Storynot read

    Not read: no transcript and the synopsis gives no plot, so what she wants and what turns cannot be seen.

  • Pictureworks

    Low-key lighting, a muted palette and a tight close-up on the girl's face carry mood well, though the dark background flattens depth in some frames.

  • Wordsnot read

    Not read: no transcript, so the words were not seen.

  • Worldworks

    placeholder

  • Voicegetting there

    The headphones-to-mask progression suggests a specific idea about sensory shutdown, but the frames alone do not show a choice beyond familiar imagery.

I read the synopsis and four published frames; there was no transcript, so dialogue, narration, plot turns and ending could not be assessed. Read 4 November 2026. How the scorecard works
