Depending upon where you are, Benjamin Villeda's short film Dive might be a little NSFW (it features a lingerie-clad young woman for most of its run time).

Kurz und Schön
This, believe it or not, is the opening sequence for a short film festival. As a short film-maker myself I would be very intimidated about having my work follow this. Ah well, you have to appreciate the amazing wherever you find it.
