Mountain Shadow film fest this Saturday in Walnut Creek

WALNUT CREEK, CA (Sept. 23, 2022) — The Mountain Shadow Film Society will present its 8th annual Short Film Competition on Saturday, Sept. 24, at Las Lomas High School.

Fifteen volunteer jurors selected the eight finalists, which include animated, live-action and documentary short films. Audience ballots will determine the winners.

The films will be shown at 3:30 and 7:30 p.m., with a reception for all attendees 5:30-7 p.m. The event also features audience Q&A.

The not-for-profit film society has met monthly since 2014 to screen international and independent films. The group formed in response to the loss of convenient access to these films following the 2013 demolition of the Dome Theatre in Pleasant Hill.

Las Lomas High School is at 1460 S. Main St. Call 925-787-6965 to purchase advance tickets. For more information, visit www.mountainshadow.org
