Short films are not widely regarded or glorified as much as they should. Given the amount of hard work and passion film creators have for their work of art is quite impressive in this kind of film. Another underrated gem in this list is coming to win hearts after years of hard work and dedication.
“Shades of (Baby Pink),” a Telugu short film by data scientist and filmmaker Neelima Gudavalli, emphasizes a child’s emotional intelligence in reaction to suffering. The plot revolves around a five-year-old child who is under the care of his grandparents in India since his parents have returned to the United States and he misses them.
His grandma tells him that it’s difficult for his mother to fly back at such short notice by showing him the map of the world. However, the boy quickly develops his definition of distance and claims that it is easy to cross. The 32-minute Telugu short film tells the tale of a young child experiencing emotional turmoil.
The movie has gained recognition on the international film festival circuit. It was chosen for the Golden Leaf International Film Festival and the Chicago International Indie Film Festival, and it has won prizes at several festivals, including the Port Blair International Film Festival, Milan Gold Awards, and Golden Leaf International Film Festival.
Digital distribution of the movie was always something Neelima was interested in doing. Her wish comes true because the movie will debut digitally on ETV Win on August 23rd. An audience-pleasing short film that captured the hearts of people all over the world would undoubtedly transform the short film business and garner favorable reviews.
