Homemade

Netflix held a Worst Short Film contest...and everyone won. It's so bad I'm not sure what to say, just horrible throughout. And to the only other comment, talking about the third episode...I was interested because I have a 5 year old. That had to be the most disconnected and empty 4 minutes ever put on film. I'm giving it an extra star because I guess they tried.

Welcome to Netflix short movie festival but I wanna tell you something : some of them really childish and really boring... But of course I have some favorite.(3-4-5 were good) I try to watch this in September, maybe if I watched earlier, could be more watchable.

I enjoyed some of the series episodes and the creativity that was displayed. That being said, I only liked seven of the episodes in total.

The ones that I did like were all able to explore how Covid-19 is impacting people all over the world. This documentary series is a reminder that everyone around the world is going through this crisis. We all feel lonely, sad and yearn for past activities that are no longer. I know that I have not yet been deeply impacted by Covid-19, but there are millions, if not billions, of people around the globe who have through the loss of a family member or job.

My hope is that people can watch this series and recognize the beauty in our similarities rather than our differences. I highly suggest to watch the show. I found it to be incredibly creative and I hope you do as well!!!

Episodes that I liked: Paolo Sorrentino, Pablo Larraín, Lungano Nyoni, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Johnny Ma, Gurinder Chada and Ana Lily Aminpour.

I have only watched three so far (Kristen Stewart, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Natalia Beristain), but they were excellent. I think it was an innovative idea in the time of social distancing and coronavirus to make short films. I enjoyed the artistry, the stories, and perspectives.

1st episode: a boy is filming with his private drone through the windows of strange houses... I am astonished. Were all these people asked for agreement and permission?! I am glad this isn't allowed in my country; at least yet. Whatever, most episodes just come across as "wannabe artistic", boring or nonsensical. Tried to watch all 17. Episode 3, 12 & 13 I liked most. 3 & 13 are quite touching and memorable. They deserve a 10. Episode 12 is somehow creepy and interesting. therefore all in one 4 stars.
