Watching all the short films “Oscar” 2025: What should win?

If you want to make your own pool, you do not ignore three categories of short animation movies, live action and documentary. But what binephil is still? 15 nominees have already won something here if you consider them the global ambassadors of everything that a movie theater can do in a little time. They will compete from Hollywood’s biggest night, but of course we have loved ones.

This year’s solid animation pile is carefully broken down between flummmoral children with hope and injured adults trying to cope. Among the first, French wizard Loika espec “Yuck!” He depicts a consensus kiss as a pink, brilliant story on the lips of people, which creates an uncomfortable problem for any child, disgusting adults, which is smooth but secretly interested in trying. Veteran Japanese animator Dysuke Nishio standing in Russia’s fantasy “Magic candy” Gives a single don dong-dong bag with titular sweets, everyone briefly making part of his world less silent, since his own worldview becomes more grateful and confident. Enough optimistic voters can plant any of these movies.

But something tells me “Beautiful men”, A fanciful fairy tale about three bald brothers -Flamanda, who visit foggy Istanbul for hair transplantation. This makes the brilliant use of the tactile intimacy of the stop movement, perhaps the only appropriate style, given the cripple of this trio. Another opportunity “In the shadow of Cypress” Hossein Molama and Shirina Skhani, who follow the first appearance in this category by Iranian director (Yeghane Moghaddam with “Our Form”). Their color story about the injured war veteran, his concerned daughter and beach whale is caused and unauthorized.

Isolation trouble and satirical television nostalgia Mark Dutch director Nina Ganz Roald Dal-Mime-Mime-Radil-Kuruo Kuro “Wander amazing”, About the tiny human stars of a cheap children’s show, which break through the survival in their unbreakable studio after the death of its creator. In his gloomy combination of world construction through the world decay, he remembers the term “suspended animation”, and is sufficiently resonant to win.

Meanwhile, real-time records look at dangerous situations, some of them are torn from real life. South African semi -amulomatic but effective poaching parable “Last Ranger” Sends a wide -eyed rural girl with love for rhinos to the wildlife reserve, where her meeting with a friendly female railher leads to a cruel revelation on protection and danger. From India (and American producer Mindy Caling) comes the philosopher who has turned into movies, Adam J. Graves refreshes “Anua”. He tracks a lively relationship between the title character, a 9-year-old and her older sister Palak, smart girls who focus on tense opportunities for them. The fleet and the funny, living in the research nature of childhood, it also, unfortunately, the dramatic soil reflects the dramatic soil at an interesting point.

Oscar nominee in real time “a person who could not remain silent” is based on a true story.

Heaviness is not a problem for any “Occupation”, From the writers-deectors of Sam and David Catler-Kreyts, or Dutchman Victoria Varrdam “I’m not a robot.” The former brings the energy of Paul Greengrass for the interaction of a young family with American immigration of bait and switching. The latter – as if Maren Ade has made an episode of the “black mirror” – transfers the technology of CAPTCHA to a spooky omega -point for a young office worker (Ellen Parren plays a great play). It is a feminist nightmare for her character – and dark -colored for us comedy.

However, and a probable winner is a skillfully tense Bosnian vignette of the Bosnian War of Neshayzha Sliopchevich “A person who could not remain silent” Established in the gloomy compassion of the train. When space is looking for a paramilitary group, the fate of a young Muslim man is a feed for all but one passenger. Although true history, the removal of historically specific details is part of the film: it feels anxiously relevant.

In short documentaries, movies solve the inheritance of violence or, in the case of “Tools of beaten heart” and “The only girl in the orchestra”, Sweet strains that support music. Great “tools” from Ema Ryan Yamazaki lead us to a school in Tokyo, where the second -graders form a percussive orchestra, learning about the mixing of their nerve internal rhythms in the things of communal performances.

“Meanwhile,” is a loving portrait of Molly O’braen her innovative aunt, an 89-year-old double bassists Orin O’Brien, the first member of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, selected by Leonard Bernstein. She is self -employed, charismatically unfriendly and loved colleagues and students. It is a wonderful biode that is fueled by how much O’Brien radiates the mental Bonchomy, which we want to imagine courses through all those devoted to life in art.

Grace also exists in more serious stories. Kim A. Snyder “Death by number” The center of the expressive healing process of Sam Fuentes, the park, Florida, the school survived as the court of its attacker approached. Texas’s death is where heavy, hearty, hearty, hearty, hearty smrity Mundra “I’m ready, boss” Finds an unusual soil that shares a convicted killer, reformed by a local Da and a victim’s son, torn by unresolved feelings. This powerfully claims that in some cases, the death penalty kills only positive changes.

But the most sort of short, “Incident”, Never customized by the found Morrison’s Bill Master (“Duson city: frozen time”), reveals the accountability. Film is real-time installation from a public published police body and videos of observation of the fatal shooting of a black pedestrian and a chaotic effect. From the synchronized images of separated screens, we absorb the exciting minutes that the body of hairdresser Harita Augustus lies unattended, while getting attached to the production of justification. On the other side of the yellow police ribbon, the assembly choir of the besieged community shouts the truth as a comment they know will never hear.

The latest police contract in Chicago has canceled the public use of their personnel. The “incident” reveals why.
