The Somerville Arts Council and Somerville Media Center present an ArtsUnion and Cinema Somerville Short Film Fest on Saturday, May 19th from 8:00-9:30pm held indoors at SMC (it has been moved from outdoors to inside due to forecasted rain).
The 2018 Short Film Festival celebrates Community Voices!
These films are driven by powerful stories, captivating subjects, important themes and portray a distinct viewpoint on our world, by filmmakers with a confident voice. Some examples of COMMUNITY VOICES are “voices of creativity, voices of change, voices of protest, voices of struggle, voices of happiness, voices of empowerment, voices of hopes and dreams, giving voice to the voiceless, etc.”
We are happy to announce the accepted film submissions for CSFF3! Thank you for sharing your work with the community!✌️😎🎬📽️
