The Philips Parallel Lines: Tell It Your Way film contest invited people to make a short film, no longer than three minutes, that contained these lines as its dialogue:

What’s That?
It’s a Unicorn
Never seen one up close before
Beautiful
Get away, get away
I’m sorry.

The winner, as judged by acclaimed directory Ridley Scott, was Porcelain Unicorn. Watch this tale of innocence found and shattered during World War II.

    What a beautiful, meaningful film. It said more in three minutes than many full length films ever do.
