A short film can speak to the viewer as a fragment of a larger whole, or as a carefully crafted miniature. With Bits, the director Áron Horváth Botka managed to create a work that brilliantly demonstrates the full potential of the short format, thanks to compelling directorial and acting performance and an extraordinary emotional effect that is perfectly comparable to that of a feature-length drama. Bits is one of the short films where there is nothing to add or take away, a film that achieves its full potential exactly as it is.
