About This Film
SPARKS is a delightful comedy short that proves age is just a number and wit never grows old.
Meet Zanie and Robert—two seniors who may be getting up in years, but whose minds are as sharp as ever. Each day, Robert settles in with his newspaper to discuss the latest events, eager to share his thoughts on the state of the world. But no matter what topic he brings up, Zanie is always ready with a quick comeback, a different perspective, or a zinger that leaves Robert shaking his head.
Director Carl B Crosby captures the playful dynamic between these two lifelong friends (portrayed by Vicky Crosby and Ken O'Neal) as they navigate the news of the day with humor, warmth, and an undiminished spark for life. Their banter is proof that growing older doesn't mean losing your edge—in fact, it might just sharpen it.
SPARKS celebrates the enduring vitality of friendship, the joy of spirited conversation, and the reminder that as long as we can laugh, argue, and engage with the world around us, we're never really old. It's a charming tribute to the seniors who refuse to fade quietly into the background, who continue to show up, speak up, and keep the spark alive.
