Emily toils in mines beneath her house, imprisoned by foxes who have duped her entire town into believing children can be replaced.

While a father hunts down the pesky groundhog that is terrorizing his wife’s garden, he and his son make a game out of it… kinda like a game of Tag.

HOLD UP HEART

BEYOND THE TEAM
Tim Kulikowski

SEASON 15 CLOSING NIGHT

Join us on Saturday to celebrate the wrap of our 15th season of monthly short film screenings!! It has been an extraordinary year of filmmaking, new creative friendships and collaborations, and so many new shorts and animated films.

This month, we welcome back alumni filmmaker Kate Rees Davies and a special music video collaboration she shot with Australian singer/songwriter VASSY for the song BEAUTIFUL. The video features some amazing young people from PLAYGROUND OF DREAMS, an innovative mentoring program teaming entertainment industry leaders with children to foster their creativity, leadership, and unique purpose in the world. The project brings together a lovely visual style with the powerful lyrics in Vassy’s empowerment anthem. Vassy and Kate will both be in attendance!

Vassy - "BEAUTIFUL" - directed by Kate Rees Davies
This month’s program also includes another eye-popping selection of short films and animation from near and far, including the encore screening of Talibah L. Newman‘s BUSTED ON BRIGHAM LANE. Also, a new short creepy tale entitled TENDER by LA filmmaker Elric Kane and writer/producer Lee Ross… and more…

Filmmaker Panel & Short Film Screening

It has been a crazy summer! Earthquakes on the East Coast! The Demise of SUNSET JUNCTION! A Hurricane in NYC? Tons of new film production, surviving a hectic film festival calendar between – and many of us scrambling to make that Sundance submission deadline! Time to take a minute and take a collective breath.

This is our Summer Filmmaker Happy Hour, and it is a chance for us to sit and chat a bit about what the summer hath wrought. Come by for a cold one, and share what YOU did this summer! We will finish the night with a couple of awesome fun short films!

DIMMAK STUDIOS will be offering some $5.00 drink specials for us, and of course the pizza oven will be on…

Bring your headshots, biz cards, and flyers of any cast/crew calls you have coming up for us to share with the group.
