Frame of Mind: Short Film Foray

ArtandSeek.net 19

This week on “Frame of Mind” we’re bringing you four short films and one music video. Think of it as a modern microcosm of the Moral Compass.

Frame of Mind airs on Thursdays at 10 pm.

The stories recounted in these films are real-life lessons wrapped in fictional or artistic mantles. Lest I spoil any of these lessons with a premature word, allow me instead to tempt you with a taste of what’s to come with a game.

Can you match these lessons to the following 5 films?

Tune in to “Frame of Mind” at 10 p.m. Thursday to see if you guessed right!

1: Kindness is priceless.

2: There are consequences for taking the easy road.

3: We are responsible for our future.

4: Violence begets violence.

5: Life is heavy; lean in to your loved ones.
