The Festival is sponsoring films that are free to the community. Each was chosen because in some way it touches on passions and loves and interests outside of our normal competition focus.
A set of short films all made by filmmakers connected to the local area.
Odd Bird
As a boy, Clark always felt like the odd bird in his conservative ranch family. To cope, he created a comic book, “The Adventures of Odd Bird,” making himself the hero of his own story. Now 19, a publisher is interested in his work and Clark needs to return home to get the comic manuscript…and tell his mom his truth. Clark fears once he tells her he’s gay, he won’t be welcome there again.
