I am a huge fan of short films but the problem is, there are 100 times more shorts made than features, therefor trying to figure out which are worth your time can be quite the chore. That is how the YoungCuts Film Festival can help. The event which kicks off tomorrow, showcases the very best student short films from around the world. So if you are in Montreal and are trying to find something productive to do with your rainy weekend, I highly recommend heading down to check it out. Here is all the info.

The Young Cuts Film Festival takes place at Guzzo Spheretech, 3500 Boul. Côte-Vertu. Here’s how to get there:
