As you might recall from HitFix’s Telluride Film Festival coverage, Jonás Cuarón’s short film “Aningaaq” is a companion piece to Alfonso Cuarón’s “Gravity.” It depicts the other side of an SOS radio conversation between that film’s main character, Dr. Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock), and an Inuit fisherman named Aningaaq (Orto Ignatiussen) on the icy mass of Greenland. The short works both in tandem with the feature and separately as an emotional sliver of the greater work’s themes. It could also join “Gravity” in the Oscar discussion later this season as Warner Bros. has submitted it for consideration in the Best Live Action Short conversation.Read more here: http://www.hitfix.com/in-contention/alfonso-and-jonas-cuaron-talk-gravity-short-film-companion-piece-aningaaq
