This collection of short films is clustered around the idea of escape: either literal escape or figurative. Some of the films are darkly funny, like “Bitch,” which chronicles the love story between the titular angry female and an equally angry male (whose character name is unprintable in a family paper). Others are touching and sad, like “Ten to Two,” the story of a driving instructor who learns a terrible life lesson at the end of a long, boring day of teaching. Not all of the films will suit all viewers, but that is an advantage of a short films collection: even if you don’t like one or two of the featured pieces, they are only a few minutes long.
