2024 Festival Shorts
FREE!
A collection of diverse short films across a variety of genres.
WHY WE LIKE THIS FILM: The fun thing about shorts programs is that if you don’t like one short, just wait a few minutes and there will be a whole new film! Also, almost all feature film makers start out by making shorts, so this is a great opportunity to see the work of some significant filmmakers of tomorrow.
