TESTIMONIAL

"The team at box[ur]shorts Film Festival has come up with an innovative approach to watching movies that becomes part of your everyday experience--something you can do while waiting for your table at a restaurant or hanging out at your favorite coffee house. The art-house is no longer hidden away in some small, dank theater, but readily available. There's an immediacy to this way of experiencing film that is refreshing and exciting."
