More shorts. Standout: Norwegian Inga E Marakatt's "Unborn Biru": pregnant widow steals cursed silver from dead body to care for daughter. Unnerving slow burn horror, especially considering the tundra on which it was shot. It's a feature film begging to happen #AkorokoAtSundance

Desde hace más de 20 años, en la Universidad de Murcia (@UMU) nacen y sobreviven hacinados decenas de babuinos q son torturados y asesinados en experimentos
Junto a varias organizaciones hemos solicitado q detengan esta injustificable atrocidad pero seguimos sin recibir respuesta Babuinos en la Universidad de Murcia
Por favor, ayúdanos y pide a la @UMU que ceda los babuinos a un santuario donde puedan ser rehabilitados y vivir el resto de sus días de una forma digna y sin una muerte programada.
