The Miami Film Festival presents Cinemaslam, a celebration of films by college students across our state representing the future of film in Florida, at 12:15 p.m. Saturday, April 11th.
Featured films are:
“The Golden Touch”: Beekeepers are the main reason why we still have honeybees. Here is why we should support them, and help local pollinators like bees and butterflies.
“Krome Ave.”: After a night of drinking, two friends find themselves stranded in the middle of nowhere – until a quiet gas station changes the course of their night…
“Ghost of the Marsh”: A million flowers. A thousand urban forests. One mission to bring back Florida’s Ghost Orchid from the brink of extinction.
“Florida”: Since the overturn of Roe v. Wade, Florida has been left in limbo where reproductive rights and pregnancies are concerned. This documentary explores how pro-life and pro-choice individuals have been left to care for such basic needs, and how maybe the abortion itself is not the real problem in the state.
“JIT”: On a hot Florida day, Marcus is pulled into a room full of new faces and quickly realizes he has no choice but to fit in.
“Mighty Spoonbills”: After three cheerleaders die in a car crash on their way to a big cheer competition in Orlando, they make a deal with the devil to collect human souls in exchange for a second chance at life, and most importantly, to make it to the competition on time.
“Lunch”: Lunch is a tender portrait of childhood loneliness and the longing for a parent’s love, told through the small, everyday rituals of a school lunch.
Tickets are $15.50 for the general public and $14.50 for students, military and seniors (62+) with ID. Click on the link above.
