SHORT SHORTS FILM FESTIVAL & ASIA 2015

Get a sense of Xavier Dolan’s roots.

Dolan, a young genius currently charming the masses with his talents as both an actor and a director, built his career from his days as a child actor. In 2014 his directorial feature “Mommy” shared the 2014 Cannes’ Jury Prize with Jean-Luc Godard’s “Goodbye to Language.” “Mirrors,” starring Dolan as a boy, is a must see film for anyone who has watched “Mommy,” “Lawrence Always,” “Heartbeats” or “Tom at the Farm.” It seems that his experience as a young actor may have had some bearing upon his refined expression as a director!?
