Lucky Numbers

Ai vai uma recomendação de um curta bacana que venceu a etapa de Los Angeles do Festival de filme de estudante deste ano, o CampusMovieFest 2008.

http://www.campusmoviefest.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/IdeaFlow.woa/wa/showAMovie?movieID=3640

Todos os filmes que concorrem no festival são filmados e produzidos pelos próprios estudantes em uma semana com apoio e equipamento dos patrocinadores. É bem bacana!
