Revelation Screens as part of the Kickoff Gala Shorts. Admission is Free. Six short wordless films generated with physical movement, exploring the moment of epiphany, from the perspective of six actresses. Each microshort is intended as a stand-alone piece, that when viewed together transcend the individual experience and touch the universal. Audience members follow the journey from its origin within a coming of age awakening, through gaining a sense of power, the discovery of loss, the vision for family, the wisdom of age, until they reach the ending microshort: this mortal coil, the dream within the dream we live here on earth.

The Firebird screens as part of the Kickoff Gala shorts. Admission is free.
