Many of my posts will be related to film, I’m sure. This is a wonderful short film that I fell in love with the first time I saw it.

Porcelain Unicorn

Entrants in the Philips-sponsored constrained cinema competition “Tell It Your Way” were restricted to six lines of dialogue: “What is that?,” “It’s a unicorn,” “Never seen one up close before,” “Beautiful,” “Get away, get away,” and “I’m sorry.”

Keegan Wilcox’s Porcelain Unicorn, hand-picked as the Grand Prize Winner by director Ridley Scott, is making the rounds again today, and it’s certainly worth a second (and third, and fourth, and tenth) glance.

It’s amazing how such small things brought together can create such a rich and touching story.
