The 2020 Sundance Film Festival Short Film Tour
September 9, 2020 - October 16, 2020
A virtual showing of six short films from this year’s Sundance Film Festival, including fiction, documentary and animation from around the world. The 80 minute program includes: “Benevolent Ba,” Malaysia, U.S.A. A devout woman’s lust for virtue thrusts her family into a sacrificial slaughter of biblical proportions. Directed by Diffan Sina Norman; “Hot Flash,” Canada. Ace is having a hot flash, and she’s about to go live on local television. How one woman tries to keep her cool when one type of flash leads to another. Directed by Thea Hollatz; “The Deepest Hole,” U.S.A. While the space and arms races are Cold War common knowledge, few know about the United States and Soviet Union’s race to dig the deepest hole. This is particularly surprising since Hell may have been inadvertently discovered in the process. Directed by Matt McCormick; “Meats,” U.S.A. A pregnant vegan struggles with her newfound craving for meat. Directed by Ashley Williams; “T,” U.S.A. A film crew follows three grieving participants of Miami’s annual T Ball, where folks assemble to model R.I.P. t-shirts and innovative costumes designed in honor of their dead. Directed by Keisha Rae Witherspoon; and “So What If The Goats Die,” France, Morocco. Abdellah, a young shepherd living in the mountains, is forced to brave the elements blocking him in order to get food and save his goats. Once he gets to the village, he faces a supernatural phenomenon. Directed by Sofia Alaoui. For more information and to stream, visit magiclanternonmain.com.
