The Film Festival for Folk With Short Attention Spans

If you need a brief respite before the graduation festivities next weekend, be sure to hit the First Annual 5 Second Film Festival at the Laemmle Theatre in Claremont on Thursday, May 14th, at 7:00.

In the grand tradition of Short Music for Short People, the 5 Second Film Festival will feature films that are....short.

Really short.

The event is sponsored by Claremont Community College, the only college in California to have a joint degree program with Sierra Madre Community College in Marine Textile Manufacture.


In addition to the eponymous 5 second films, the festival will include short films (under 10 minutes) as well as the computer animated feature, "Big Buck Bunny":

Everyone has their 15 minutes of fame.

But only in Claremont do you get to experience 5 seconds of it.
