Catch up with the 29 shorts in The Salt Lake Tribune's Quarantine Film Festival

June 12, 2020 by Sean P. Means

Got busy for a bit, so I forgot to post this on the site: The Salt Lake Tribune’s Quarantine Film Festival, a compilation of 29 short films made during our current locked-down status.

The films mostly came from around Utah, but I did receive submissions from such far-away places as Poland, India, Australia and California. The genres were also varied, with drama, documentary, animation, science fiction, and a lot of comedy. Seems like the main thing our filmmakers wanted to do while in captivity was — to borrow the lesson from “Sullivan’s Travels” — have a laugh and try to forget their troubles.

Read, watch and enjoy.
