RWV Kanopy Movie Group Discussion - Third Thursday each month online via Zoom.

Movie this Month: Three Short Films

Description: We’re watching three shorts this month: Knight of Fortune (24 minutes), The Silence (16 minutes and Do I Have to Take Care of Everything? (6 minutes).

Knight of Fortune, a 2023 Academy Awards nominee, addresses the loss of a loved one, the grief, the risk of yellow skin and a coffin. It is too much for Karl to face. It’s much easier to fix a broken lamp. A chance encounter helps him face his pain.

The Silence was nominated for the Palme d’Or for Best Short Film in 2016. Fatima and her mother are Kurdish refugees in Italy. During a visit with their doctor, Fatima is asked to translate what the doctor tells her, but she keeps silent.

Do I Have to Take Care of Everything? was nominated for the 2011 Academy Award for Best Short Film. Sini wakes in a panic: she has slept in and the family is late for a wedding. She wakes her husband Jokke and their daughters. They start to prepare themselves in a hurry. Mother is going crazy since nobody else seems to be able to do anything right. Who has messed with father’s shirt, hid the girls’ dresses and where is the wedding gift?

Watch the movie before the discussion via the web application "Kanopy" (or other streaming service) anytime before the discussion date and bring your comments and insights to the online discussion.

Kanopy is free through many county library websites.

For more information about how to sign up for Kanopy, for the link to the movie trailer, and to gain access to the link to the Kanopy Zoom movie discussion, click on this event.
