The Shortest Day
December 18, 2015
FREE
The Shortest Day, an annual celebration of the short film, comes to Daniels Spectrum this year.
This free event, featuring new, classic, and award-winning shorts by some of Canada’s most talented filmmakers, is a fun way for families and film-lovers to celebrate the lead-up to this year’s winter solstice on December 22 — the shortest day of the year — and usher in the holiday season.
The National Film Board of Canada, Telefilm Canada, and Quebec’s Société de développement des entreprises culturelles (SODEC) are partners in presenting this event across Canada. Daniels Spectrum is pleased to join with them in hosting this special day of free screenings in Regent Park.
The Shortest Day was started in France in 2011, and has now spread to more than 50 countries. Join us on December 18th in the AKI Studio Theatre to discover and celebrate great films and outstanding filmmakers! Films will continue to play throughout Daniels Spectrum from Decemeber 19th to 21st.
Complete details on The Shortest Day screenings and films, including film synopses can be found at www.theshortestday.ca.
