Pioneer isn’t quite as over-the-top as many of the shorts selected by Sundance, but this is actually a strength. The subtle weirdness is expertly done, which makes the story feel suspenseful and real.

SATURDAY SHORT: LAST DOOR (2015)
Sixteen-year-old Christian McDonough directs this promising start to what we hope will be a continued pursuit in cinema.
SATURDAY SHORT: GAINERS (2012)
A bleak look at food consumption through Onze’s blend of animation and photography.
SATURDAY SHORT: MOIRA & ME (2012)
There’s something a little off about Moriah. She isn’t much like all the other girls.
SATURDAY SHORT: BABOON (2011)
A man with a camera approaches another and gets punched in the face. It gets satisfyingly creepy and disjointed from there.
Content Warning: This short contains some violence and poorly drawn nudity.
