20th Annual HollyShorts Film Festival

Dozens of short films – some of which you may just see in the Oscar nominations next year – are showing at the annual HollyShorts Film Festival, which honors the best in short films, from comedies to sports movies, dramas, and more. It’s always amazing how much narrative can get squeezed into less than 20 minutes – makes me think about these too-long Netflix series that probably should have been a short! The festival also has panels with filmmakers and expert sessions on marketing your short film, navigating legal questions, working with agents, and more.
