Feilaulau (Sacrifice)
Superb acting and great dialogue. Despite the subtitles and foreign language I believed the character's intentions and emotions. Obviously the technical issues were too much for some people - flickering, audio mix/edit and the lighting. However, underneath that was a fresh, freeform editing style, a simple, naturalistic and compelling story, well told in 7 minutes. Once the tech issues are hurdled, I can't wait to see what you guys will pump out next year. Shot. Fuck the genre. You made a good short film.

The Brick
I wasn't too fussed on the bookends of the short. The cheeseyness clashed with the middle part which I thought was superb. The homeless guy was wonderfuly acted - child like, beautiful, and the tension of not knowing if the ring would ever work was great. Loved the middle part. I'd watch a feature of that.
