Alonso Alvarez Barreda won the Cannes 2008 Fourth annual Short Film Online Competition, with "Story of a Sign."
It's a short film every writer should watch.
A stranger transforms a blind man's afternoon by changing his sign so that instead of telling people to have compassion, it makes people feel compassion. In a way it illustrates the old writer axiom "show don't tell". Great wee film.

Aww... I feel so bad for the blind man. That was a great short film, thanks for posting it!
Lovely. Nice one, Alan.
A wonderful film. Touching and made me cry. Kindness, compassion, love they cost so little considering how much they ripple and bring back to you.
Beautiful. Thank you.
