2020 has its place in history as the year that a Coronavirus stopped the entire planet. In its first months, amidst quarantine and growing uncertainty about the future, Fantaspoa Film Festival launched the Fantaspoa At Home platform, with 28 feature films from past editions.
Soon, we held a film festival Contest: an online short film contest aiming to stimulate filmmakers from around the world to create fantastic genre short films: their own pandemic-related stories - in their homes, with the resources they had at hand, and only with pets, family member or roommates as cast (video chat contributions were also allowed).
This anthology brings together the thirteen most representative and creative short films submitted - capturing this moment in time which, if humanity is lucky, will never be repeated. All films are somewhat related to the subjects of virus, epidemic and confinement.
