It&#8217;s shot from the earthbound perspective of the recipient of Sandra Bullock&#8217;s character&#8217;s distress signal, and it&#8217;s a powerful, beautiful seven minutes.<\/p>\n<p>From Seth Abramovich at<em> The Hollywood Reporter<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The idea for\u00a0<em>Aningaaq<\/em>, which follows an Inuit fisherman stationed on a remote fjord in Greenland, occurred to the Cuarons as they were working out the beats for the\u00a0<em>Gravity<\/em>\u00a0screenplay. &#8220;It&#8217;s this moment where the audience and the character get this hope that Ryan is finally going to be OK,&#8221; Jonas, 31, tells\u00a0<em>THR<\/em>. &#8220;Then you realize that everything gets lost in translation.&#8221; Both Cuarons spent time in the glacial region (Alfonso once toyed with setting a movie there) and fell in love with the barren vastness of its frozen wilderness. During one of those visits, Alfonso met a drunken native who would become the basis for the title character, played by Greenland&#8217;s\u00a0Orto Ignatiussen. But it wasn&#8217;t until Jonas, on a two-week trek gathering elements for his film, was inspired by the local inhabitants&#8217; profound attachment to their sled dogs that he decided to incorporate that element into the plot.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s striking about the short is that even as Aningaaq is \u00a0in a place nearly as desolate, empty and deadly as the one Ryan tenuously survives in, he has everything: the dogs he loves, his wife and child, his job. Their conversation is both comical and heartbreaking. It&#8217;s a must watch for any fan of the film.<\/p>\n<p><object id=\"flashObj\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\"><param name=\"flashVars\" value=\"videoId=2851445805001&amp;linkBaseURL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hollywoodreporter.com%2Fnews%2Fgravity-spinoff-watch-side-sandra-657919&amp;playerID=1257205077001&amp;playerKey=AQ~~,AAAAAC3bNtw~,c0hgCOyLwy4Lde_FJ6Ombu5W_uQUkX83&amp;domain=embed&amp;dynamicStreaming=true\" \/><param name=\"base\" value=\"http:\/\/admin.brightcove.com\" \/><param name=\"seamlesstabbing\" value=\"false\" \/><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"swLiveConnect\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/c.brightcove.com\/services\/viewer\/federated_f9?isVid=1&amp;isUI=1\" \/><param name=\"flashvars\" value=\"videoId=2851445805001&amp;linkBaseURL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hollywoodreporter.com%2Fnews%2Fgravity-spinoff-watch-side-sandra-657919&amp;playerID=1257205077001&amp;playerKey=AQ~~,AAAAAC3bNtw~,c0hgCOyLwy4Lde_FJ6Ombu5W_uQUkX83&amp;domain=embed&amp;dynamicStreaming=true\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"swliveconnect\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"pluginspage\" value=\"http:\/\/www.macromedia.com\/shockwave\/download\/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash\" \/><embed id=\"flashObj\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" src=\"http:\/\/c.brightcove.com\/services\/viewer\/federated_f9?isVid=1&amp;isUI=1\" flashVars=\"videoId=2851445805001&amp;linkBaseURL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hollywoodreporter.com%2Fnews%2Fgravity-spinoff-watch-side-sandra-657919&amp;playerID=1257205077001&amp;playerKey=AQ~~,AAAAAC3bNtw~,c0hgCOyLwy4Lde_FJ6Ombu5W_uQUkX83&amp;domain=embed&amp;dynamicStreaming=true\" base=\"http:\/\/admin.brightcove.com\" seamlesstabbing=\"false\" allowFullScreen=\"true\" swLiveConnect=\"true\" allowScriptAccess=\"always\" flashvars=\"videoId=2851445805001&amp;linkBaseURL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hollywoodreporter.com%2Fnews%2Fgravity-spinoff-watch-side-sandra-657919&amp;playerID=1257205077001&amp;playerKey=AQ~~,AAAAAC3bNtw~,c0hgCOyLwy4Lde_FJ6Ombu5W_uQUkX83&amp;domain=embed&amp;dynamicStreaming=true\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" swliveconnect=\"true\" pluginspage=\"http:\/\/www.macromedia.com\/shockwave\/download\/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/news\/gravity-spinoff-watch-side-sandra-657919\" target=\"_blank\">Read more\u00a0about\u00a0<em>Aningaaq<\/em>, a likely Oscar contender for Best Short, at <em>The Hollywood Reporter<\/em><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Hollywood Reporter has an extraordinary exclusive from Gravity co-writer Jonas Cuaron, a companion piece to the film he assisted his father Alfonso in making.
