That was the challenge for filmmakers two years ago, as part of an unusual contest sponsored by Phillips. It was described thusly:
The contest, which received over 600 entries from around the world, invited aspiring filmmakers to create an original short film using the same six-line dialogue as the Cannes Lions award-winning Parallel Lines short films directed by RSA talents Carl Erik Rinsch, Greg Fay, Johnny Hardstaff, Jake Scott and Hi-Sim.
Director Ridley Scott picked the winner below, “Porcelain Unicorn.” A colleague at work sent it my way yesterday and I have to say: it’s something to see.
