Shorts Program 6 - Explicitly Digital. During the past few years, digital filmmaking has created new opportunities for emerging mavericks to realize their visions in ways that were perhaps previously inaccessible to many. This glorious collection of digital short films delightfully flaunts examples of the new freedom given to filmmakers. Stories include a brilliant caper film about an insurance scam gone wrong; a sentimental look at family road trips; a comedy about the most unlikely bouncer; a troubled girl and the dad she never knew; and the story of a man who slowly loses his mind-featuring X-Files villain, William B. Davis. With familiar faces, rising stars, comedies, and dramas, Explicitly Digital excites, tickles, stuns, and most of all, inspires. Reviewed by Michael Flores
