Got a short attention
span and a taste for the offbeat? The Rocket City Short Film Festival
is for you.
Oh, and this isn't
just a spectator event ... you get to choose the winners!
These short creative
productions include comedies and dramas created by filmmakers in Alabama,
Georgia and Tennessee. Below are the films we'll screen. (these are
not in festival order)
We'll begin the
evening with the Youth Entries and follow those with the"family
friendly" Adult Entries. This part of the festival will be about
90 minutes and followed by a break. We'll screen films with a more mature
theme/content during the last part of the evening.
