In a film that took only a day to shoot, Frankie Shaw‘s “Smilf” tackles motherhood, the de-sexualization of nudity and a woman’s desire to conform to a singular ideal. The short, which stars Shaw as the female lead opposite Thomas Middleditch (“Silicon Valley”), follows single mom Bridgette, who calls an ex-lover over for sex. Bridgette’s body, however, is covered in marker from a recent visit to a plastic surgeon, which soon becomes a talking point between her and ex-lover Dan. Featuring Shaw in all manner of undress and stained head to toe in marker, the theme of this finalist in TheWrap‘s.
