XX
The anthology is framed by stop-motion-animated segments depicting a walking dollhouse with a blinking doll face on it. A doll hand separate, but also living, moves from its drawer and scurries around collecting items the dollhouse finds. Within its interior, various objects and items are shown including: a cabinet where bugs and moths enter acting as a stomach of sorts, a room with living sewing needles that make tiny tapestries, and a room with a morphing apple that seems to act as the dollhouse’s heart. Eventually, the dollhouse finds a small blackbird (whether it is stuffed or an actual dead bird is ambiguous). The dollhouse places the bird into a baby doll and upon it crying immediately removes the bird and enters a room with an unconscious girl. The girl has a small door on her chest and the dollhouse places the bird inside it. After a while, the girl awakens, pleasing the dollhouse. Directed by Sofia Carrillo

Occupant
25-year-old Danny Hill just got the opportunity of a lifetime. When his grandmother dies, he finds out he may be able to take over the lease on her sprawling rent-controlled apartment on Manhattan’s posh Upper West Side. The doorman and a lawyer convince him to lock himself in for 12 days, the time it will take to get the lease legally changed to Danny’s name. If he leaves the apartment, the landlord will most certainly not let him back in the building; they would go to great lengths to get market-rate tenants in there. Desperate not to return to his dump in Queens, Danny agrees. But once he’s locked in, Danny begins to hear strange noises. And unexplainable events start happening in apartment 1003: things he’s thrown away reappear, uninvited visitors show up at his door, while welcomed guests vanish unexpectedly. Danny may not be the only OCCUPANT. Perhaps he should have stayed in Queens.
