Local youths' short films to be screened this weekend
Another weekend, another online offering from the cancelled Kingston Canadian Film Festival.
There will be 11 films, with a total running time of an hour and a half, to watch at no charge. They are:
• Simple Math, directed by Max Benda
• The Wendigo, directed by Lukas Hunter
• Maxie, directed by Tim Beyers
• Error 404, directed by Cailyn Dann
• Lose It, directed by Tobias Jean, Taz Trefzger, and Leo Hilder
• Sam, directed by Lydia Stafford, Scott Lawrence and Abby Stewart
• Cryptid Fever, directed by Casper Leonard
• The Surprise Party, directed by Abby Daicar
• Greed, directed by Noah Levac, Madeleine Scott and Zach Vecchio
• Escape, directed by Casper Leonard
• Castles in Spain, directed by Emily Russell.
This is the third weekend that the film festival, which was cancelled after its opening night when the pandemic was declared, has posted its other local film packages online.
Last weekend, it was the short films made by (older) local filmmakers. The weekend before that, it was the debut of music videos featuring local bands and created by local production companies. Those two also awarded jury- and audience-voted prizes as well.
