MOVIE SCREENERS CLUB (Thu. 8/21) 7:30pm

MOVIE SCREENERS CLUB is a monthly short film festival at the Gardena Cinema to be held on the third Thursday of each month. Join us in watching short films. Stay after the show to listen to the filmmakers talk about the process of producing their short films. Learn about these filmmakers and their dreams.

Vote for your top three favorite short films. Find out who wins the Audience Award! Each month's Audience Award winner will then be a guest on the Movie Screeners Club Podcast to discuss in detail the process of short filmmaking.

And the monthly winner will also go on to the year-end battle to become the Short Film Champion of the Year for a chance to win $500 and lots of glory!

After the Q&A, join us in the lobby for a social mixer. Meet the filmmakers, your future colleagues, and ask them your questions. Share production info, make personal contacts, and network like your career depended on it.
