PBS Online Film Festival : PBS | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it

Watch Us Surprise You: Join us this Spring (February 27 to March 30, 2012) for the first ever PBS Online Film Festival. For five weeks we'll premiere four short films from our producing partners.
This week film festival hosts Patrick Epino and Stephen Dypiangco introduce four real stories; meet one of the last seltzer bottlers, a record collector, rooftop dwellers and an Iraq war veteran (Feb. 27). Week 2 (March 5) is a compelling collection of shorts, filmmakers tackle coming-of-age stories from the perspective of teens who are dealing with bullies, navigating their sexual and ethnic identities, and learning what it means to be a man. The following weeks will focus on Girl Power, Who We Are?, and Offbeat.
