Dear Filmmakers:

[Sharlene B. DuLac]

Independent cinema engages our imagination and enrich our lives culturally and artistically. Celebration of Shorts! Film Festival wants to share the cinematic marvel with people who love independent short films - films that have the ability to tell a story - films that are the calling card for the next hottest filmmaker.

I understand how difficult it can be to complete a film, of any length, and I commend all filmmakers on the accomplishment. So on that note, I would like to congratulate all filmmakers for pursuing their passion and determination to share their stories with film lovers worldwide.
