The Ryder presents a series of Oscar-nominated short films, to be shown at various Bloomington venues from February 21 until March 2.
Short films, like short stories, are often overlooked. The best short subjects have all of the power, scope and resonance of a feature-length film. We are screening the best of the best: 3 programs (one devoted to animation, one to live-action and the third to documentaries) featuring all 15 Oscar nominees. This is your chance to see the films before the Awards show
Each program will be shown on campus at Fine Arts, Woodburn Hall, as well as at Bear’s Place and the Back Door. At these venues, each program is $5 but for $10 you can buy an Oscar Pass admitting you to all three programs (on different nights, on different weekends). The programs are not rated but if they were, the Animation program would be rated PG – one of the animated films is a bit dark, but certainly no darker than the average superhero movie. It’s kid-friendly for most kids. And there are Saturday matinees for the Animation program.
See website for the full program of short films.
Cost: $5 - $10
