Ghost of Recent Past
A newly wedded couple moves into a new house, only to realize that it's haunted by a ghost only the husband can see.
Closed captions available
MOVIE NIGHT
After being scouted at her local video store, Laura finds herself in the twisted corrupt world of the film industry. Filmed on location at Seattle's own Scarecrow Video!
Team Building Exercise
When tasked with laying off the employees of his father's company during a work party, an inept manager tries to lessen the blow. This pitch-black comedy satirizes the inhumanity of corporate work.
PUDDLES
Marcie is sick and tired of her family constantly comparing her to Josh, her "Mr. Perfect" boyfriend. Now, to make matters even worse, she accidentally runs over her grandparents' beloved pug, Puddles. Struggling to cover up the tragedy, she entangles herself in lie after lie at Puddles' Celebration Of Life.

These side-splitting shorts push the boundaries of comedy (and, possibly, good taste) with tales of racist ghosts, dead dogs, team-building exercises gone amok, and ruthless social climbing. Sometimes edgy, always funny.



Watch this program in person at NWFF, Sep. 22 at 7pm. VIRTUAL, IN-PERSON, and HYBRID (virtual AND in-person) Festival Passes and Individual Tickets are available!
