"Work Forced" wins Best International Micro Short at Festival Cartón in Argentina

BOOM! Exciting News! "Work Forced" Takes Home the Best International Micro Short Award at Festival Cartón in Argentina!

I am absolutely thrilled to announce that my animated short film, "Work Forced," has been crowned the winner of the Best International Micro Short award at Festival Cartón in beautiful Argentina! This incredible achievement has left me overjoyed, grateful, and filled with a deep sense of pride.

It’s been a wild week. Not only did "Work Forced" triumph at Festival Cartón, but it was also selected as a Finalist at the Mental Health Film Festival Singapore: Short Film Youth Competition which I attended in person. It’s the first time I was in the audience during the opening and awards ceremony. Just the thought that my film resonated with the judges in Singapore fills me with immense pride and creative satisfaction. It’s a thrilling and addictive feeling to watch your short film on a big screen in front of the live audience for the first time!

"Work Forced" also screened at the Tangier Film Festival in Morocco. To have my creation showcased at such a remarkable event and share it with a diverse global audience was an absolute dream come true.

None of this would have been possible without the collaborative efforts of my creative partners at Nice Wach. Their hard work, talent, and passion for bringing this dark comedy to life have played a pivotal role in our success. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to everyone involved in this project, as every triumph feels even sweeter when shared with those who have poured their hearts and souls into it.

So here's to "Work Forced" and more shorts in the future!
