Ice Cream Sunday is a terrific concoction from the always entertaining auteur Derek Rimelspach. The story of a young girl whose dreams intertwine religion and desert is a fine fable for all ages. Shot on DV, Ice Cream Sunday is a fantasy using dreamy imagery and Rimelspach's fluid direction deftly guides the viewer through a most pleasant (albeit short) journey. Having seen some of Rimelspach's darker shorts I was most impressed by the director's ability to move from heavier to lighter material without losing his unique vision. Like David Lynch's shift from Blue Velvet/Wild at Heart to The Straight Story, Ice Cream Sunday show's that Rimelspach is capable of a wide range.
