AltCity Shorts

Screenings of short documentaries and fictional movies by students from the different universities in Lebanon: ALBA, Antonine, BAU, Kafaat, LAU, USEK, and NDU, among others.

The goal is not only to screen the movies of students, but give them a space to network with other universities, share ideas, and portray to the community how exceptional and talented up-and-coming Lebanese movie-makers can be.

AltMedia Experience will screen the top 8 shorts from the wide selection they currently have.

Special Formula:The AltMedia Experience, the first public event at the AltCity media/tech/social impact collaboration space (launching this fall), will bring together creators, innovators and activists around the themes of alternative media, new media, citizen journalism, media innovation, creative expression, and advocacy. The week-long event, at the end of July, will include media-focused art exhibits, demonstrations, workshops, and discussions, as well as fun and participatory cultural events in the evenings.
