BEST OF THE FEST APRIL 2, 2022

WE’RE BACK! We are so excited to be re-launching the Riverside Short Film Festival weekend after two long years of not being able to meet in person to bring you the best of short film. To relaunch, and to honor the work that happened over the last two years, we will be focusing on our Best of the Fest event on April 2, 2022 at the historic Walt Theatre in downtown New Haven. We will be bringing you both the Best of 2020’s film submissions that never aired, plus the best of 2021! Join us for an amazing day of unique and brilliant films from the last few years.
