Event type: All Ages
Our Youth Shorts program showcases the work from local youth exploring the possibilities of the medium. Some films are shot with pro cameras, others are shot on cell phones, some scripts are detailed, others are totally improvised — this program shows the creativity and imagination of Kingston’s young storytellers! All the young filmmakers in this category are high-schoolers or younger (this year one filmmaker is only 9 years old — the youngest in KCFF history). Films in this program are automatically considered for the Best Youth Short Award, presented on March 2 at the KCFF Awards Party!
