Sunday Shorts

Cinematic Sunday at Swig on Geary has me most excited for the weekend–the “semi-regular” short film screening series seems to be gaining steam for all the right reasons. IndieGoGo and The Auteurs, two local start-ups I admire for the ease of promotional tool use they provide filmmakers and afficinados, will be co-hosting this Sunday along with popular film showcase Indee.tv and behind-the-scenes site MakingOf.com. Sure, the description for one of the screenings, “Lies,” sounds like a This American Life promo (“three perfectly true stories about lying”), but some of the selections sound most intriguing (i.e. “a love story about two gay wrestlers living in rural Iceland”). Should be a great way to support local screening efforts just off the 31.
