This program has been geolocated to the state of Maryland, Washington DC, and the "DC-Metro" area, and includes only these Virginia cities: Alexandria, Arlington, Crystal City, Falls Church, Fairfax, and McClean. If you are outside of any of these areas, you will be unable to view this program.

Last year, our shorts programs were themed after movie titles, but since the pandemic began, our lives have revolved around the television set as the source for movies. This year’s short film programs are named after famous television shows, more specifically reality tv shows and game shows, since the last year’s news cycle has felt like one big dramatic and suspenseful reality tv show.

When five-year-old Ivan is forced to take a bath by the babysitter, he discovers a frightful creature under the foam.
