Short Stories - Documentary Series

Winner, Best Short Documentary, 2006 ATOM AWARDS, Ep 1

2006 ATOM AWARDS, Ep 3

SHORT STORIES is a unique 4 x 26 minute documentary series about a group of short statured people who play basketball together. It follows the extraordinary life experiences of four memorable individuals as they try to have a baby, grow up in a split family, find a partner and grapple with tragedy.

 

Filmed over two years, the series focuses on the characters’ lives rather than their disability, but it is their disability that makes their life experience so intense and their stories so compelling.

Short stories explores universal themes of life, death, love, identity, family and hope in the context of a disability that is a lifelong struggle. As we learn about what it is like to be short statured and deal with these themes, we in turn learn to better understand ourselves.

 

Fascinating, moving and entertaining, short stories is a must-see journey into the lives and communities of four people you will never forget.

Produced by Stu&Duff with Stu McCarney.
