Worlds We Created

This a short film dealing with the imagination of children and the natural instinct of childish recklessness and the dangers within that recklessness . It might be a simple premise and perhaps conscious of this writer/director Nicholas Santos tries to involve a gimmick of making a short film that has no dialogue from any of the characters with the only dialogue coming from a television set showing the American space program of sending men to the moon . This is possibly unnecessary but the story works well enough without any dialogue . It also contains some impressive cinematography but one does think Santos should have concentrated much more on the expressionistic visuals of the children playing soldiers and of the sitting in a rocket hoping to take off . That said I doubt if the budget would have stretched that far so WORLDS WE CREATED is a competent though far from outstanding short film which is a little bit too simple and straight forward
