silent city

On the outskirts of a once great city, time is running out as a
soldier calls for help for his dying comrades. This is Silent City.


[go here for hi-res QT-versions]
SILENT CITY (previously titled The Leveller) "was shot over 2 days in a Quarry in the Dublin Mountains, on 35mm film using Anamorphic Lenses" and was directed by 29-year-old Oscar nominated (for Best Short Animated Film; "Fifty Percent Grey") Irish director Ruairi Robinson, who has been recently announced to helm the reported live-action AKIRA feature film adaptation [blogged] = looking rather like a first-person shooter-videogame at some parts, with sweeping grandiose camera-moves (*nice*) and after seeing the MAKING-OF video? totally appreciate the effort of making his vision a reality - but can he achieve it with AKIRA? = looking forward to it :)
