Bingo
Patrick Schoenmaker
The seclusive retirement home Afterglow is a depressing end station. Fortunately, feisty elderly Gerda has one spark of joy: the weekly Bingo night. When she is one blank short of winning the game and the tiny ball suddenly disappears, she starts an absurd search in which she is willing to go to extreme lengths in order to get the outcome of that night's bingo game.

On Attend
Dimitri Sterkens
When a young African girl tries to cross the border in order to find her family, she gets stuck in a cyclical no man's land at the border control as she has to take a shower each time she applies for a new passport. A conceptual approach to the bureaucracy and the hopelessness of undocumented refugees.
