Future Shorts has gone all romantic on you this February with a beautiful collection of short films about love. And sex. Check out some intriguing 'chair pornography' in ROOF SEX by cult director PES, gasp as Lev Yilmaz gives the male take on the human condition, and stare in awe at the visual feast that is 'Papillon de l'Amour'

We're also really excited to host some of the work from Dogmedia Productions. This rambunctious, Dublin-based group of filmmakers are renowned for their adventurous, quirky and deliciously absurd work. Gary Bermingham and Andy Travers will introduce 'The Day it Rained Sweets' and 'Ringing in Sick'.

PROGRAMME OF FILMS

PSYCHE
Dir. Aurelien Badin / France / 2005
In an old shop, an abandoned mannequin falls in love with its reflection in the window.

THE TOUGHEST GIRL IN THE WORLD
Dir. Nicola Mills / UK / 2006
A summer by the seaside. A young bully struggles to accept her femininity.

A PATH OF TEARS
Dir. Sujin Jo / South Korea / 2005
A beautifully sorrowful animation about a break up.

PAPILLON D'AMOUR
Dir. Nicolas Provost / Belgium / 2003
A hallucinatory scene of a woman's reverse chrysalis into an imploding butterfly.

ROOF SEX
Dir. Pes / USA / 2002
Two armchairs consume their lust.

TALES OF MERE EXISTENCE
Dir: Lev Yilmaz / USA / 2005
Another collection of hilarious tales from Lev illuminating emotions from jealousy to horniness

SHE LOVES ME, SHE LOVES ME NOT
Dir. Jamie Rafn / UK / 2005
A man sits in a pub, soaked in Guinness. He reflects on the ups and downs of his relationship.

Special guests in Dublin this month Dog Media will be talking about their work and screening:

THE DAY IT RAINED SWEETS
Dir. Dogmedia / IRL
'The Day it Rained Sweets' is a very contentious film. Imagine you're 6 and sweets just fell out of the sky before your eyes.Well that's what 'Davy the Bear' and his chums did for the children of St.Canices BNS school during their little break on a Wednesday morning. However, Davy and Co. run into a spot of bother with the strong-arm of the Law.

RINGING IN SICK
Dir. Dogmedia / IRL
Four resourceful humans test the tolerance levels of four human resource managers by constantly failing to show up for work after being offered a job. The aim... To see who can hold onto their job the longest without ever working a day. The process... Ring work every morning explaining ones absence. The result... Imaginative excuses, irate employers and guaranteed sackings.
