Best Short Film of 2015 IMHO

Catherine Dudley-Rose's short film, Parallel Chords, is a stunning and beautifully told, original story. As a writer, Dudley-Rose blends character, situation and metaphor to share a compelling story of a young woman seeking her own voice. As a filmmaker, Dudley-Rose adds an inspiring level of visual detail to this complex tale. Dudley-Rose is able to take the audience on a complicated and surprising journey. There is no predicting the outcome of this story, and better yet, there is no desire to predict its end, for the audience is caught up in each moment of this film. There is no desire to rush towards its end, because each moment is delicious and to be savored. I can't wait to see more from this magnificent filmmaker.
