    Back
    Director Stephen Belyeu

    Jacob’s lonely quiet life is interrupted routinely by dreams of a past love lost. He undergoes an experimental medical procedure that allows him to relive any memory he chooses. However, Jacob soon discovers that there is much more to the procedure and finds himself facing the ultimate question, “If you could change the past…would you?”

    Sneaky Snake: Lost In The Holy Land
    Director George Sanders, USA & Shawn Curran, USA

    Another global adventure starring Sneaky Snake (a green sock puppet). In this episode, Sneaky becomes lost in the Holy City of Jerusalem, searching for a McDonald’s bacon-cheeseburger. Along the way he meets a Rabbi, a Priest, and a Mullah, who each recommend a ‘particular’ surgical procedure on Sneaky’s anatomy. In an amazing tour-de-force of acting, Sneaky plays all the roles in this culturally diverse short.
