Deconstructing Nemo
A holiday weekend, a deadline, and two reluctant parents leads to a comic reimagining of a scene from Nemo. Can true art exist under parental supervision? Student filmmaker Rachel O’Kelley uses a deadline to get creative with this high koala-ty comedy. This five-minute short is a story of procrastination, a tortured artist, and koala onesies.
