NEFTA Football Club (2019)

Nominated for Best Live Action Short    This was the only outright comedy nominated and I'm a little sad it didn't win.  It needed a little more time, I think, to truly be a contender.

Two boys find a drug-laden donkey wandering the desert and relieve it of its product.  The older boy (Lyás Salem) wants to sell the drugs for cash but the younger (Hichem Mesbah) has a slightly different idea.

This is pretty cute but I think it could have added an extra couple of minutes just to not feel so rushed.  It's currently streaming on filmshortage.com if you're interested.
