"Sweetie, we can go at it again." Here's something fun, and just a bit raunchy, to watch whenever you have a spare moment. Botanica is an award-winning short film made by Dutch filmmaker Noël Loozen. After playing at film festivals for the past two years, it's finally online and free to view. The NSFW short is about a garden-center employee who is afraid of infertility, but learns that he just needs to swallow his pride if he's going to keep his lover (and have a baby). Botanica stars Sytske van der Ster, Guido Pollemans, Jiri Loozen, Olivia Lonsdale, and Victor Peeters. This is a superb short, with some hilarious dark comedy and clever cinematography. One of the best shorts I've seen this year - looking forward to more from Noël.
