BALTISHORTS

Comprising of 6 incredible Baltimore-made films (4 documentaries and 2 narratives), our Balti-Shorts program sees these films in conversation with one another about our beloved city.













DARK CITY BENEATH THE BEAT

Rhythmic and raw, Dark City defines the soundscape of Baltimore city highlighting local club artists, djs, dancers and producers as they are realizing their dreams of globalizing this musical genre. Inspired by an original Baltimore club music soundtrack, Dark City Beneath The Beat showcases Baltimore club music as a positive subculture in a city overshadowed by trauma, drugs and violence.
