(notes on) biology

Featuring a mix of animated and live-action shorts, this alternately touching, wacky and hilarious group of films is sure to delight. In “I Am Round,” a girl who is born round in a world of squares doesn’t seem to fit society’s mold, and a sleepy city’s “Swimming Pool” provides the perfect meet-cute for two sneaky skinny dippers. “Café Regular, Cairo” offers a frank and honest look at modern Arab society as a couple meets at a café to talk through the first crisis in their relationship, while a nebbishy “Little Dad” bumbles his way through imparting an important life lesson to his crossdressing seven-year-old son.
