    I quite like short films because they often tell a complete story in under 10 minutes or so. This is a thread to post links to some of your favourite short films.

    I'll kick things off: here is a link to a recent short film about time travel. The premise is that a guy has built a time machine to go back in time .... One minute at a time, and he uses it (hilariously) to try to pick up a girl. Well worth the 6 minutes or so.

    Do you also enjoy short travel videos or is it generally just short films? Because I am a great fan of short travelling videos which show the magic of a place in a short period of time

    Oooh, I like travel videos, and technically they are films (documentaries?) so yes, please post.

    I guess the Disney/Pixar shorts that air before full-length movies meet this thread's criteria. I saw Inside Out last night (great film), but the short before that, Lava, was beautiful. Its not officially on YouTube, but the full song is, and there is also a dubbed version (so you could watch the dubbed version on mute, and play the song, and get the gist).

    EDIT: And it features tropicbirds!
