Sixty years ago, in an obscure corner of Africa, the only survivor of a light aircraft crash was a baby boy. Perhaps it was the miracle of his survival that gave him the gift of “sight,” and he became a Sangoma, the seer of the Kuvuki tribe, interpreting the wishes of The Great One through the throwing of the bones. Hence his name, “Bones.” Today, at an advanced age but still fit in mind and body, his mission is to pass on his wisdom to his son, Mathambo, and guide him into manhood – a mission doomed to fail because of both of their obsessive personalities.

A TALE OF LOSS, LOVE, AND PAPA JOHN'S. A no-budget student short film directed by high schooler Ethan Dunlap, co-written with star Bobby Whitehouse. Loosely adapted from the Ambrose Bierce story 'The Moonlit Road', Dunlap and Whitehouse proceeded to add a comedic element, slapstick, a chase sequence, an 80s pop soundtrack, and a musical number. An homage to 80s screwball comedies and Buckaroo Banzai, it was largely made as practice for "actual, you know, real filmmaking". It is also, admittedly, Not Very Good.

A man with a wife and child attempts to run off with a hostess, but he doesn’t show up at the place they agreed to meet. The hostess continues to wait fully aware he won’t come. Then a man calls out to her…. “The Dork, The Girl, and The Douchebag,” the latest film in three years by OKUDA Yosuke who made his commercial film debut with “Tokyo Playboy Club” (11), is a powerful ensemble drama intertwining a drug dealer, a yakuza, an ex-convict youth, and others. It can be said the film inherits the setting of his previous work, but the intense realism exhibited in the raw chaos far exceeds the previous film and amply points to OKUDA’s future potential. Portraying the complex male character who only lives for violence, OKUDA’s talents as an actor should also not be overlooked.
