Summer Shorts




« back to classes page
ClassGraphic This year, 15 Oscar-nominated short films competed for three awards and a few minutes of attention. This summer, we’ll award them eight attentive hours, two a week, comparing their wide range of subjects and the ideas that motivated them. The eight films include Retirement Plan, Forevergreen, Two People Exchanging Saliva, The Singers, and others from the Animated, Live Action and Documentary Short Film categories. Short films revel in detail. They look at life closely, finding humor in a parlor, harmony in a pub. All our selected films are available on various streaming platforms, and free sources like YouTube, Kanopy, and BAM Film 2026. A complete list will be sent on registration. We watch films at home, discuss them in class. Please bring your own definition of “Short Film” with you to the conversation. We look forward to hearing from you this summer.
