It’s wonderful that you as a person who worked on one of the films left me a comment. It’s always good to exchange opinions and yours as an “insider’s account” is very valuable.

As you observed, the 3 films had the setting/mood in common.
As not every viewer may know, all 3 films were produced in the same neighbourhood in the same restricted time period as part of a very demanding workshop with a challengingly tight budget. I think the fact that there’s a theme running throughout the evening as you’re watching is a good thing :) Especially in this age of fragmented shuffle-ing.

Of course, I’m a subjective crew member (composer of the ‘Bitter Pineapples’ soundtrack), so I’m biased by default…but I also have a tiny bit of insight I thought might be of some value.
