2007 DC Shorts Film Festival Comes To E Street

Posted by pqresident
September 7, 2007

What: DC Shorts 2007 Film Festival
When: September 13 – 20, 2007
Where: Landmark’s E Street Cinema (11th and E Streets, NW)

DC Shorts turns the spotlight on truly independent short films from all over the globe, created by new and established filmmakers in an era when the art of filmmaking is opening to all. The festival selects films from every genre for their competition screenings—with a special focus on films created by metropolitan Washington, DC based directors and writers. After each screening, filmmakers have the opportunity to speak to the audience as part of a moderated panel.

This year, the festival will present 89 films and 7 live script performances, culled from 14 countries. Once again, the venue will be the Landmark E Street Theatre in the Penn Quarter. With new specialty competitions — High Definition Shorts and the Live Script Reading Competition — DC Shorts is growing into one of the most influential film festivals in the country.

For festival and ticket information, go to the DC Shorts website.

And the LIVE Script Reading on Saturday night is an amazing insight into the filmmaking process. The audience will vote for their favorite — and the winner will receive $3500 to make their film! Plus DCS will show it in 2008.
