Short Shots Ep 22: Martial Arts Mayhem!

As a tribute to the Fighting Spirit Film Festival (@FSFilmFestival) Mike and Rich take a look at no less than 30 short films centering around Martial Arts. We've grouped them around some basic themes, but the first one seemed not to fit in with any of the groups (in retrospect I'd have put it with "shot in the woods").  Clicking the links below will take you to each film: So the "anomaly" we kick off with is: HOOK SWORD HUNTER https://youtu.be/v0KNe_fYrAE 15 Jonathan Fung     "TWO BLOKES FIGHTING" (6:02) THE LESSON https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keffogkvQPY 1 Godefroy Ryckewaert FIGHT OR FLIGHT https://youtu.be/eE9-xoolX1s 3 Godefroy Ryckewaert HASTE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLiYxBk82VQ 5 Aeddan Sussex INSANE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8CUDsKexZs 9 Cool Cham & Ben Choi   "WOMEN IN ACTION"  (21:53) BITTEN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qj3rh18Oz6M 6 John Ferrer MARITA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7pLh6kfSnc 4 Serge Girishya PHOENIX - COMEBACK https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnOmEWte-e8 7 Emin Abishov AGENT RED 2 https://youtu.be/zE5WBir5agI 13 Kevin Barile   "UNSAFE HOUSES" (34:15) STRATAGEM https://youtu.be/0cd7ungwX5I?si=AbFTwQjGx2eYxJv- 10 Daniel Locicero STATUS: RETIRED https://youtu.be/mfd5uxUD7qE?si=brxQ_e3KJvfWJbEL 7 Joey Min SOUR TRADE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9D_lHY81Elo 9 Daniel Locicero   "SHOT IN THE WOODS" (44:34) BOUNTY https://youtu.be/Dkyj7RqmQGk 5 Jay Kwon DADDY ISSUES https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXoAnSBrXgw 5 Lorenz Hideyoshi / Joseph Le YUKUE FUMEI https://youtu.be/LLcvvM5mZeg?si=lIgM3WjFqTu---QI 9 Jordan Okubo   "IN THE MIND" (01:00:00) ONCE UPON A TIME https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ex0EtXhIamo 3 Chongwei Zhang THE INNER DEMON https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrdrVPjz7FA 7 Emman Arrieta SOUL FIGHTERS https://youtu.be/MTmU5n9ZdjE 7 Wilson Vang A DROWNING HEART - PART 2 https://vimeo.com/827357889 20 David Lee   "BATTLE OF THE SEXES" (01:13:04) CHOPSTICKS!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy25XUVs-uQ 23 Aeddan Sussex DISHING IT OUT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvzRUxT8_L4 3 David Lavallee Jr TRAITOR https://youtu.be/duTHbSehBTk?si=omHRnLtKdEvG_i7Y 1 Millie Dallas YOUR KILL this film is unlisted at the moment - we shall link once available to share! 16 Juan Bofill   "SCI-FI" (01:29:45) WE ARE HOME https://youtu.be/BTURMgkX3kw?si=HQbbA-aqKwAmVSjq 6 Ramin Sohrab Z-43 https://youtu.be/n1_ilxfWuGI 7 Martin Reyes FUSE https://vimeo.com/827858923 7 James Chappell   "REVENGE & RESCUE!"
