More On This Event

The Boy in the Cabinet Beneath the Sink (Runtime 20 min) 

When they discover a migrant boy hiding in the cabinet beneath their kitchen sink, the rocky marriage of a Connecticut couple in their 60's takes an unexpected turn. The film asks the question: is it possible to start again when you've reached the end of the line? The migrant boy and the Connecticut couple are quite possibly in the same boat.  

Ways to Go (runtime 13 min) 

Two old friends come upon each other in a post-apocalyptic world and must decide wether their paths continue together or go on separatley. 

Lyrical (Runtime 18 min) 

The collision of two worlds: that of the Black elite and the dispossessed. Clashing values across generations and socio-economic status drive this story of failure and redemption. 

Sit with Me While I Die (Runtime 20 min) 

A priest must reconcile his lifelong dogmatic views on suffering with real life pain.

Description
Study Up

Join us for night of short films by local filmmakers curated by Brian Russell of Red Shoe Film. We'll have several special guests for Q&A after their film. The night will be moderated by Brian Russell. Red Shoe Film was founded in 2010 after accidentally buying a camera. He has shot over 2,000 interviews, and has hundreds of credits to his name, ranging from an ESPN 30 for 30, to celebrities like Arianna Huffington, Ed Burns and the entire cast of Saturday Night Live. He loves movies, and has directed over a dozen short films (some of which he hopes you never see!)
