Synopsis

Get more bang for your buck with eight films for the price of one in this year's collection of the best Canadian short films. The program includes Next Floor, winner of The Canal Award for Best Short at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival. Directed by award-winning Quebecois director, Denis Villeneuve (Maelstrom), Next Floor is a wonderfully surreal and mesmerizing look at human gluttony. The shorts program also features About Face, a hilarious look at internet social networking featuring Kingston's own Hugh Dillon (CTV's Flashpoint). With heartbreaking dramas and side-splitting comedies, this short program will be an emotional roller coaster you won't want to miss.
