Graduation Films Programme 4
Graduation Films Programme 4 of the ReA Festival 2026. Competition programme, judged by the festival jury. Happily Uneven by Jeongmin Lim (South Korea · 5:44 min) Mia has a magical yellow pencil that can bring drawings to life. She draws Bo, a clumsy but charming stoat. But when her hidden fur allergy triggers uncontrollable sneezing, her drawings start to fall apart. One day, Bo vanishes—and Mia finally draws a flawless picture… A story about how imperfections shine in a perfectly ordinary world. Discomfort Zone by Johnny Ragusa (United States · 3:00 min) After becoming discouraged and throwing away his paint brush, an artist must navigate a dark fog with the guidance of a little girl made of paint and face down his inner demons. Miseros Morsu by Dafne Karyme Galindo Nishan (Mexico · 5:08 min) Miseros Morsu tells the story of Armando, a nervous and neglected boy who, after being forgotten by his parents, finds himself trapped in his classroom with Teresita, a white dove and his only friend. More alone than ever, and surrounded by a growing darkness and disturbing religious images, Armando soon discovers that an evil presence is stalking him in the form of a mysterious girl, who will force him to confront a terror that threatens to consume him. The sacred twists. Shadows become threats. Something sinister and hungry has awakened. Figment by Yan Yu Wong (United States · 2:12 min) Growing Stones, Flying Papers by Roozbeh Gezerseh, Soraya Shamsi (Germany · 12:24 min) Under a rising dictatorship, a writer hides in his apartment, documenting the truth in quiet resistance. His neighbor chooses a different path, taking to the streets at night. When she’s in danger, he is the only witness - and must choose between silence and action. It Might Even Be Real by Yael Bonne (Israel · 7:09 min) Investigating the mechanisms at the heart of cinema and animation, an Israeli animator seeks to convince her mind to embrace the illusion of hope—just as it embraces the illusion of movement. Ever Ending Summer by Nikki Girod, Sylvia Jorde (Germany · 5:50 min) Maya is a young woman who moves to a new city and leaves her home and childhood behind. At the railway station, shortly before her departure, she looks back and remembers all the beautiful and difficult moments of her childhood. ACID ECHO by Elsa Moulin (France · 10:48 min) During a night at a free party, Aimée slips into a psychedelic journey where the boundary between reality and illusion dissolves. She senses the echo of an answer, a truth buried in a corner of her mind, ready to resurface in the turn of a dream. The Horse, the Dog & the Blonde by Rozalia Kaleta (Poland · 3:09 min) An aspiring dog-headed influencer enters a cutest pet contest, but goes one step too far in her quest for fame. Perfect City: The Mushroom by Shengwei Zhou (United States · 14:30 min) Haunted by the memory of her brother’s death, an artist finds her grief materializing into a tangible nightmare: a morphing, shifting space woven from the threads of a mushroom sculpture she saw collapse decades ago.
