I had the chance to see MAVET before its September 2005 World Premiere at the LA Shorts Fest, during its Completion Screening in March 2004 (unfortunately I couldn't make the LA Shorts Fest screening). For being only 4 minutes, this was a VERY VERY well done piece! It got to the point and kept you entertained throughout. It's basically divided into 3 Acts (I know, how did the filmmakers achieve that in 4 minutes but they did!), Act 1 is the setup introducing the two characters playing what looks like a harmless chess game, then Act 2 shows them really playing feverishly for seemingly no reason (at this point, you know something's up), then Act 3 gives you the climax and finale (and a good one it is, was really really surprised, don't want to spoil it!). See this film if you have the chance, you won't regret it!
