Aspiration is a Canadian short drama film, directed by Constant Mentzas and released in 2002. The film is a silent depiction of a man (Nicolino Marinacci)'s isolation and anguish.[1]
The film was a Jutra Award nominee for Best Live Action Short Film at the 5th Jutra Awards in 2003.[2] It was subsequently screened at the 2003 Toronto International Film Festival, where it won the award for Best Canadian Short Film; in his acceptance speech, Mentzas joked that he knew he had won the award when he realized that he was the only director of a Canadian short film who had been invited to the awards luncheon, before thanking the jury for paying attention to the film and not falling asleep.[3]
