Documentary Shorts– Documentary Shorts (under 30 minutes) include films that are based on actual events, persons, locations, etc. that address a social justice theme. Experimental Shorts & Animated Shorts– Experimental Shorts (under 30 minutes) encompasses any films that may not fall under the description of documentary or narrative, including music videos or Animated Shorts (under 30 minutes) that may encompass any genre that address a social justice theme.
