Confetti of the Mind: The Short Films of Nacho Vigalondo


            Héctor (Karra Elejalde) is a middle-aged ordinary man who has just moved to a lonely house with his wife Clara (Candela Fernández). They lead a quiet life. He receives a phone call, but the person doesn't say anything. Héctor calls that person back, but nobody answers.Later Héctor is looking through his binoculars; he sees what he believes to be a naked girl in the woods. He decides to go there just to find that same girl (Bárbara Goenaga) lying on a rock. He clumsily falls close to the girl, and he realizes she's dead. Suddenly, a man with a pink bandage covering his face stabs Héctor in his arm with some scissors. A chase starts, and Héctor breaks into a house near the forest. There is strange machinery and equations on some blackboards within the house. He talks to somebody in a building nearby, and that person promises to get in touch with him immediately. The other man says that the man with the bandaged face is approaching him. The voice leads him to the other building through a path in the grass illuminated by many lights. Héctor sees more machinery and wonders aloud what all that is for. This is the time machine. Through the window, Héctor can see the car - driven by the man with the bandaged face. He gets into the time machine and travels an hour back in time.The young man in charge of the time machine, El Joven, (Nacho Vigalondo) does not recognize Héctor. The young man explains to Hector (Héctor 2) that he must not interfere with the other Héctor (Héctor 1) so he can go into the time machine again, leaving one Héctor instead of two. Héctor can't help but phone his home, worried that Clara is with "a different man". However, he doesn't dare say anything. El Joven tells Héctor 2 off, but things still happened as they should have. Héctor 2 tries to avoid temptation and not phone his wife again. Héctor 2 leaves with the young man's car and stops when he sees the young lady riding her bike to the village nearby. A van smashes into Héctor 2's car and he uses the bandages on his wounded arm to bandage his now injured face. The bandage stops the bleeding but it turns pink because of the blood. The young lady asks him whether he's all right, and promises to call for an ambulance. Although her mobile phone has got not coverage, Héctor 2 doesn't want her to leave. She is a hairdresser, and puts Héctor 2's bandage right. Héctor 2 steals the girl's scissors, and asks for her help in order to do something. Héctor 2 sees Héctor 1 looking through the binoculars. Then Héctor 2 realizes he has to stab Héctor 1 and chase him to the time machine. The girl runs away and Héctor 2 runs after her. Héctor 2 forces her to repeat the movements which Héctor 1 saw. Héctor 2 sees how Clara caresses Héctor 1, and he rudely demands that the girl takes her trousers off. He chases her, and they both fall down an uneven slope in the wood. The girl appears to be dead. Héctor 2 undresses her completely, and leaves her for dead. Héctor 2 approaches Héctor 1 and stabs him and chases after him, making the movements he saw before.Héctor 2 stops to breathe and calm down, when he hears a scream - a female voice. Héctor 2 returns to his own home where he listens to the telephone, hears strange music and is attacked by somebody who thrusts a wooden table into his face. Héctor 2 takes his wife's car and runs after Héctor 1, following the path of lights.Héctor 2 returns to the time machine and asks the young man to bring him back to the past a few seconds earlier than the last time (becoming Héctor 3). Héctor 3 threatens the young man who finally agrees. This leads to him hitting Héctor 2 with the young man's orange truck, so that Héctor 2 can become the man with the pink bandage and go after Héctor 1.In turn, Héctor 3 suffers a car accident. He sees the young girl and scares her, as she was already running from Héctor 2. Héctor 3 says that he's also running from the man with the bandages. After a short sleep, the girl takes Héctor 3 to his own house, not knowing it's his, as it's the only inhabited place nearby. Héctor 3 says it's not a good idea, but they enter the house. Héctor 3 is left, and the girl leaves. Clara sees Héctor 3's disfigured face. Clara says she's already phoned the police. Héctor 3 tries to hide Clara within a room, trying to avoid her death. He also places the ladder in the right place to enter the house by the top floor's window, while bandaged Héctor 2 is going up the stairs. Héctor 3 throws a wooden table to Héctor 2, who falls down the stairs. Héctor 3 dresses the girl with a red coat and cuts her hair, so that "Héctor 2" would think that's his wife. The girl goes out running, and she falls from the roof.The girl dies instead of Héctor's wife, while Héctor 3 has convinced Clara to stay with him. The film ends with Hector 3 and his wife waiting for the police to come. Héctor 2 driving away as the sirens of the police are heard getting closer and closer.

She passes through the park and over the playground.When Gloria wakes up, she gets a call from her sister to check out the news.

She calls Tim about what she saw, but he knows she's been drinking and he doesn't want to talk to her in that condition.Oscar gives Gloria a job to work at the bar and even gives her a big TV for her living room. She spends her time drinking and hanging out with Oscar and his buddies again. She goes home drunk through the park again.Gloria wakes up and sees that the monster reappeared in Seoul. Oscar shows up at her house as she is seeing this on the news. He comforts her as she is still freaked out, but as Gloria looks at the TV, she sees that the monster is scratching its head, which is something Gloria did earlier that she identifies as a tic where she constantly scratches her head. When Gloria looks further into the footage of the monster, she sees that it looks as if it is carrying something on its back.Gloria goes by the park around the same time that the monster was reported to start attacking. She lifts one arm up in the air and then raises both arms. When she sees the news later, the monster has mimicked her exact same movements.Gloria brings Oscar, Garth, and Joel by the park around 8:05, which is the time that the monster usually starts to emerge. The guys pull up livestream sites that record the monster as it appears. Gloria then starts dancing, and the monster starts doing the same moves. After a while, the guys notice what's going on. Joel thinks it's a prank but the monster still does what Gloria does. They inform her that helicopters are shooting missiles at the monster, which physically affects Gloria as well. She makes punching gestures, making the monster punch the helicopter and causing it to crash against its head. Gloria then stumbles drunkenly and falls.The news then shows that the monster's fall caused serious destruction and killed hundreds of people. Gloria becomes distraught and guilt-ridden. Oscar goes to her house and brings her a newspaper showing that the monster was joined in the city by a giant robot, which Oscar thinks is him.While Gloria is still freaked out by having indirectly killed people, Oscar isn't too bothered by being a robot. With his help, they find a Korean man who helps them translate message. Gloria goes by the park and makes the people of Seoul step away from the monster as she/it begins to write a message into the ground. The message translates to "I'm sorry, it was a mistake, it won't happen again." The opinion on the monster changes, now having people believe it means well.Gloria goes over to Joel's place where they hook up and she spends the night.Gloria and Oscar get drunk and then go to the park again.

However, Oscar starts to seem more hostile and antagonistic as he drinks. He tells Gloria to have a beer, and she refuses until he says he will go to the park if she doesn't take it. She takes the beer and pours it out in front of him. Oscar also calls out Garth for doing cocaine in the bathroom. Oscar then leaves drunkenly as Gloria goes after him.The next day, Joel comes over with a bunch of furniture for Gloria's house that Oscar sent as an apology.Tim contacts Gloria. She visits him at a Holiday Inn. They argue when Gloria mentions she's working at the bar, even though Tim previously dumped her for losing her last job. They later go to the bar where Oscar is already drunk and being a dick with customers. He takes out a massive firework that he and his friends bought long ago and were saving for a special occasion. The other patrons clear out as Oscar lights it, sending fireworks everywhere.Through a flashback, we see Gloria and Oscar as children on the way to school with models they made for class projects. The wind blows them away out of their hands. Oscar goes into the woods and finds Gloria's model, but he starts stomping on it spitefully. Lightning then strikes in the air, hitting both children in the head. Out of their bags spill toys that resemble the monster and the robot.Gloria goes home later to find Oscar in her house with keys that her parents gave her years earlier. Gloria tells Oscar that she figures his behavior comes from the fact that he hates himself. They start fighting and destroying furniture until Oscar runs out. Gloria follows Oscar as he goes to the park. She tries to stop him, leading to another monster-robot fight in Seoul. However, Oscar starts to strike Gloria, eventually knocking her down. He tells her that if she leaves, he will continue to rampage through the city. As he stomps around the park, we hear the sounds of people in Seoul screaming in terror as the robot stomps through the city, while Gloria lies helpless on the ground.Gloria then gets an idea of how to stop this. She takes a plane to Seoul as the city is being evacuated. She gets a call from Tim asking if he's going to go back with her. Gloria says no and hangs up on him. Meanwhile, Oscar is drunk and walking into the park, so the robot materializes over the city. The people run from it but Gloria walks toward it. In the park, Oscar hears stomping noises as the ground shakes. The monster is now standing over him. He runs away in terror, and the robot runs across the ocean. Gloria moves forward and grabs the air, which makes the monster grab Oscar and makes it look like the robot is being picked up by an invisible force. Oscar starts crying and yells at the monster to put him down. He calls her a fucking bitch, so Gloria/the monster hurl Oscar/the robot into the distance. The people of Seoul cheer as the robot is gone.Gloria walks away from the scene. As it is being reported on, Joel sees her on TV behind the anchorwoman commentating on the scene. Gloria walks into a small restaurant, looking like she's about to cry. The woman behind the counter asks if she wants food. Gloria says yes, and then offers to tell the woman a story. The woman agrees and then asks Gloria if she wants a drink. Gloria just sighs.

Paradise Hills


            Winning an online contest with the prize of dinner with his favorite actress, Jill Goddard, Nick prepares himself in his hotel room. A man naming himself Chord informs him that Jill cancelled the dinner for no reason and sends him hacked live streams on Jill, saying that this would compensate him. Coincidentally Jill is meeting her secret lover Tony at Nick's hotel, so Chord hacks Nick's camera to view their room. Suddenly, the lights in Nick's room all go on, and Tony happens to spot the camera. Suspicious, he calls the hotel's customer service office who tells him the room number, that it's unoccupied, and they can give him a spare keycard to check it out. Tony does so, and heads to Nick's room, Chord guides Nick to knock Tony out with a taser, tie him up, and get out of the hotel. A French hacker team, Triops, contacts Nick, thinking he is the notorious master hacker, Nevada. Confused, Nick ignores them. Chord starts to threaten Nick, showing he has video footage of Nick knocking Tony unconscious, and that the contest Nick won was all a hoax; he also says that he'll hurt Jill if Nick doesn't do what he says. Chord directs Nick to near Jill's house, showing he's nearby and able to kill her, in order to force Nick to send a hack that will allow him to communicate with Jill through her laptop. From there, Chord has the unconscious Tony as a hostage, and zaps him with increasing electric shocks to force Jill to strip, using Nick to relay his commands.When Triops contacts again revealing their faces, Nick asks them to peek into his laptop and they cut the connection from Chord to Nick. Chord storms in and kidnaps Jill. Nick and Triops searches for Chord and find that Chord is actually Nevada, whom Triops were to help. This puts a strain among the Triops members, whose loyalties are now torn, partially because Nevada has done a lot of anarchist/revolutionary hacker activity but has never brought anyone to harm. But Triops gets back to helping Nick after he threatens to spread their faces to the police. They lead Nick to follow Chord's car which later gets into an accident, with Jill in the trunk. Nick is chased by police cars, and he also crashes. A video feed at Nevada's servers shows that Chord and Nevada are actually two different persons and that Chord tricked and killed Nevada to get his servers and get revenge on Jill for her philandering behavior. Chord goes to Nick's car and kills him. He then streams a live feed on Jill, who is bound and gagged with a time bomb set in an abandoned factory, which attracts millions of visitors. Chord says he'll stop the bomb if more than fifty percent of the viewers leave the site. The bomb explodes in time as fewer than ten percent do so.It turns out that Chord faked Jill's death, but still intends to kill her for real. Chord tells Jill he showed her how the world views her. Jill persuades Chord to make a good ending on it, but uses her chance to escape. It is futile as Chord easily recaptures her and ties her up again. But then Chord receives a call. It's actually Nevada, still alive and angry at him. Nevada shows that he was wearing a bulletproof vest as standard procedure, so he survived Chord's assassination attempt, and overheard Chord say he intends to make Nick's website the most popular ever. Nevada easily tracked Nick down and has been impersonating him to find Chord. Nick is still alive, so Chord runs out of his hideout to check Nick's car. Nevada reveals that he's used a recording to lure Chord out while he frees Jill and sets the place on fire as Chord goes back in. Chord dies in the fire as they escape through a bunker.Jill watches internet news reports showing that the world thinks she is dead. When Nevada tells her that he intends to disappear back into the underground hacker movement, she asks what's in it for her if she doesn't talk about him. As if answering her, the news report mentions that in the wake of her supposed death, advance ticket sales for her upcoming movie are skyrocketing. Satisfied, and since the world believes she is dead, Jill asks to go with Nevada and for him to help her disappear as well.
