CRESTED BUTTE FILM FESTIVAL WELCOME WITH JENNIFER SFALCIN
Festival Director Jennifer Sfalcin welcomes you to the 2020 Crested Butte Film Festival
A FRAGMENTED QUARANTINE DREAM
A night in the life of Quarantine 2020 was captured. A tiny destination ski town, nestled in mountains had completely shut down. All businesses closed; the streets sat empty. During this initial stage of global pandemic, much was unknown. There is a bittersweet feeling of delight and fantastical sense of disbelief. In this suspended reality, I danced.
FEELING FLUSH
Vicki idolizes her new girlfriend Samantha, but draws the line when it comes to her time on the porcelain throne.
Closed captions available
AUGUST
Tucked away in the mountains of North Carolina, a twelve-year-old boy decides to run away from his single mother and into the world he loves.
STORM
Love gets glitchy when a government enforced dating app malfunctions, sending romantic hopefuls teleporting through time and space.
THE USUAL ROUTE
Between his new job as a garbage collector and doing small drug deals with his cousin, teenager Steve tries to figure what kind of a future lies ahead.
WIGGLE
A film about a kid with one loose tooth, two crazy parents, and a whole lotta—at times misguided—love going around.
THE SOUND OF A WILD SNAIL EATING
When a woman is bedridden by a mysterious pathogen, a snail unexpectedly takes up residence on her nightstand. An interspecies relationship unfolds as they share a journey of survival and resilience.
THE BLUE BED
A middle-aged woman uses a temporary marriage agency to ensnare a young girl.
Closed captions available
THE NEIGHBORS' WINDOW
Winner of the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short, THE NEIGHBORS' WINDOW tells the story of a middle-aged wife and mother who finds a thrill in watching her young neighbors across the street. Is the grass really greener on the other side?
