Jettison Your Loved Ones.

Back during the Worldwide Short Film Festival we talked some about a short titled Egg, a bizarre little stop motion piece reimagening the story of Moby Dick as a pirate tale occuring on the inside of an egg. That one went on to win awards around the world and today I got an email from Egg's art director steering me to his own short, a surreal black and white piece titled Jettison Your Loved Ones. IT's every bit as odd as the synopsis suggests:

"A man addicted to faking his own death strives for glory while his abandoned son, a boxer who thinks he’s from the future, falls in love with his half-sister, the world’s greatest swordfighter."
