2026 Oscar-Winning Short Film: The Singers
How powerful can a story be when it is stripped to the bare essentials of just a room, a handful of people and raw human voice?
Flashes of Light
Ten years ago, it was difficult to imagine that a blind person could regain his sight with the help of prostheses. Our heroes were able to. Grigory and Antonina underwent surgery to insert an implant into the retina of the eye. After a long rehabilitation, they successfully use the new "bionic" vision. Antonina can even read text written in large letters. Today, science is on the threshold of another amazing technology. An implant for the visual cortex is being tested before our eyes. So far, on monkeys. Dramatic stories in the film alternate with scientific conversations about the structure and meaning of vision.

We Can Be Heroes: Fun If You're a Kid (or Remember Being One)
A refreshing twist is that all the kids’ powers are…kind of useless. There’s a kid who can only move in slow motion, a kid who has every power in the world but can only use them randomly, and our main character Missy who has no powers at all. The thesis of the film seems to be that it doesn’t matter what kind of powers you have, its the way you use them, which is good for the warm and fuzzies.
