Short Calf Muscle is an absurdist black comedy about Anders. And Anders is different. But he doesn’t know that. Yes, he’s also gay, but that’s not the point here. There is also this thing that others see but he doesn’t.

Mae Short Calf Muscle yn gomedi ddu hurt am Anders. Ac mae Anders yn wahanol. Ond nid yw’n gwybod hynny. Ydy, mae hefyd yn hoyw, ond nid dyna’r pwynt yma. Mae yna hefyd rhywbeth y mae eraill yn gallu ei weld ond dydy e ddim.

Short Calf Muscle was nominated for the Iris Prize by Roze Filmdagen one of our worldwide network of partner festivals.
