Asbury Shorts USA Film Festival
Asbury Shorts, New York Citys longest running short film exhibition, presents their nationally recognized 37th Short Film Concert at The Briggs Opera House in White River Junction, Vermont on Friday, July 6th. This special screening of world renowned, independently produced short films is co presented by The Aidron Duckworth Art Museum of Meriden, New Hampshire. The first film blasts on to the screen at 7:30pm. The screening is strongly recommended for ages 16 and way above.
Asbury Shorts Concerts combine award-winning shorts from the past with new international festival honorees, creating a rare opportunity for audiences to see world-class short films on a real cinema screen rather than You Tube or smart phones. Oscar nominated director Jason Reitman (JUNO, Up in the Air, Thank You for Smoking and Young Adult) calls Asbury Shorts: The best short film show Ive ever seen. The highly entertaining evening features the best in comedy, drama and outstanding animation.
Asbury Shorts is celebrating the work of women directors in this years presentation. Highlights include:
The Suitor, a dark comedy from director Kate Riedl of Australia, a surreal tale of a young courtship in the wilds of the Australian Outback. The Drive is the poignant story of Evie, a loving daughter who struggles with role reversals as she drives her aging parents to an assisted living facility. Corinne Kassor directed this heart warming short. Director Amy Nicholsons documentary Pickle examines the complicated relationships humans have with their pets in a film of unexpected warmth and mirth.
