BAFTA Shorts review

A compilation of seven shorts nominated at the 2013 Baftas

Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Our experts review games, movies and tech over countless hours, so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about our reviews policy.

Alternately sad, enthralling and disturbing, this compilation of seven shorts – all of them nominees at the 2013 Baftas – is a testament to the diversity of an often over-looked format.

If there’s one theme that unites them all it’s ‘time’. Kris Kelly and Evelyn McGrath’s opening Here To Fall shatters the time-space continuum, while history unravels in the bloody, tongue-in-cheek Tumult .

Acid-trip animation I’m Fine Thanks , sun-blasted drama The Curse and sexual awakening drama Good Night offer genre-skipping kicks, but the best is saved for last – with Lynne Ramsay’s award-winning Olympic short Swimmer , an elegant monochrome moodpiece (with a savage score) that seems to make time stand still.
