'A Piece of Heaven' - straight 8 on 3 Minute Wonder

(Click to watch in Flash or Quicktime)

This is getting good!

Tonight's UK small film tombola in Channel 4's coveted 3 Minute Wonder TV slot revealed the 2008 straight 8 entry 'A Piece of Heaven'.

Unless you've been in a cave the last few weeks, you'll know we're carrying four straight 8, in camera edit, Super 8mm films this week, showing each just after they've screened on Channel 4 at 7.55pm. And why are they on the telly? Well, it's all part of the build up to the fabulous straight 8 screening in Cannes on Thursday night!

Tonight's Super 8mm short, shot entirely on location in Mexico by directors Felix Alejandro Barbosa Vazquez and Yuri Misael Barbosa Vazquez, weaves a dark story around the appearance of a strange eyeglass in a small rural village.

With the kind permission of the filmmakers, straight 8 and Channel 4 we've uploaded the film onto our podcast - just click the image above to watch a Flash or full sized Quicktime version - for everyone the world over to see.

Bookmark this link to gain access to the other fantastic straight 8 films as they're added each night through to Thursday.

Note: the order of broadcast has changed since our earlier post so more tomorrow at 7.55pm on Channel 4 - or here a short time after!
