With awards season in full swing, BFS brings the Oscar-Nominated Short Films to the Emerson Center for the Arts & Culture for the 11th consecutive year on Saturday, February 9th. Brought to you by Shorts HD and Magnolia Pictures, the annual BFS tradition again features all three categories: Documentary, Animation and Live Action. The Doc portion (two programs) kicks off the event at 2pm, followed by Animation at 6:30pm, and Live Action closing things out at 8:15pm.
The Documentary and Live-Action programs are for mature audiences, while most of the Animation shorts are suitable for youth, with a few containing mature content. Ratings and final program lengths will be posted after the final nominees are announced. This is your chance to predict the winners – and have the edge in your Oscar pool! Ballots will be handed out for voting with prizes awarded. The Academy Awards take place Sunday, Feb. 24th.
