Asbury Shorts USA annually screens globally honored short films from past years mixed with new festival honorees, creating a rare opportunity for audiences to see world-class short films on a real cinema screen as opposed to YouTube, smartphones, or computers. Academy Award nominated director and former Asbury Shorts guest host Jason Reitman (‘JUNO,’ ‘Up in the Air,’ ‘Thank You for Smoking,’ ‘Young Adult,’ ‘Ghostbusters: Afterlife’) calls Asbury Shorts: “The best short film show I’ve ever experienced.”
This presentation will feature a mix of outstanding comedy, drama and animated shorts in a fast paced, eclectic lineup including Oscar nominees, “Best of Show” awardees from U.S. film festivals and international honorees. Included in the program this year will be a local spotlight selection from award winning director Lisa Thomas entitled: “Candy Store” and featuring the music and performance by the Dust Bowl Faeries.
