For the seventh year in a row we are proud to offer the chance to see some of the Oscar nominated films that many people never see. The short film categories are full of amazing films - the unsung nominees that are worth their weight in Oscar gold.
Program includes all 5 nominated shorts, and 3 additional short-listed shorts:
Borrowed Time – dirs. Andrew Coats and Lou Hamou-Lhadj, USA, 7 minutes
Pearl – dir. Patrick Osborne, USA, 6 minutes
Piper – dir. Alan Barillaro, USA, 6 minutes
Blind Vaysha – dir. Theodore Ushev, Canada, 8 minutes
------------------------------
The Head Vanishes (additional film) – 9 minutes
Asteria (additional film) – 5 minutes
Happy End (additional film) – 6 minutes
------------------------------
Pear Cider and Cigarettes – dir. Robert Valley, Canada and UK, 35 minutes
Note: Pear Cider and Cigarettes will be the last film in the program as it is not appropriate for children. We’ll have a Parental Guidance warning before that film. Other than Pear Cider and Cigarettes, the program is acceptable for kids.
