Ice
Drama
Overview
An enigmatic, existential enforcer for a small-time local crime boss does not suffer fools gladly. Unfulfilled and compromised by his life and the pointlessness that surround him, he detaches -- and methodically explores life's transitory nature in a surprising way. ICE is not a brooding film -- with flashes of humor and quirkiness -- it is a film about hope.

Simmons, best-known for her photographs of miniature rooms populated by dolls and of oversized objects—such as a house, birthday cake, and pistol—balanced on female legs, both human and fake, brings these characters to life in a three-act mini-musical. The film is inspired by three distinct periods of Simmons’s photographic work: vintage hand puppets, ventriloquist dummies and walking objects enact tales of ambition, disappointment, love, loss, and regret. Working with composer Michael Rohaytn ("Personal Velocity") and cameraman Ed Lachman ("The Virgin Suicides" and "Far From Heaven"), Simmons’s puppets come to life in miniature domestic scenes that echo real life.

Jack is the fastidious manager of a local supermarket. The harmless but disruptive actions of his customers frequently give him headaches, which he remedies by holding a can of frozen juice against his forehead. At home, however, Jack is consistently kind, loving, and patient with his wife and daughter. One day the child brings home a stray dog, and his life is turned upside down.

Darma is a visceral and unflinching short film that confronts the dark realities of abuse and power. With its brutal and blood-soaked sequences, the film delivers gripping action that heightens adrenaline, supported by dynamic and precise camera movements. At its core, Darma explores sexual abuse committed by those in positions of authority, individuals who not only perpetrate violence but also manipulate systems to conceal their crimes. The narrative also reflects on the power of media in shaping public opinion, and how such coverage can deeply affect the psychological state of survivors. With a runtime of 14 minutes, Darma is both urgent and impactful, pulling the audience into an uncomfortable yet necessary confrontation with truth, silence, and justice.
