Review –
Today we start our exploration of the 2019 AACTA Awards Short Film Competition
by exploring Lylah D’Souza’s work Ambulance
that is inspired by a true story that brings real weight to the narrative once
you see it play out.
Ambulance is an animated short film
that charts the story of one day in the Narrator’s (Lylah D’Souza) life. It is
the perfect encapsulation of life because it is the juxtaposition of the
serious and the ephemeral. It highlights the weird things that you remember on
days of stress, something I can deeply connect with.
