Short.Sweet.Film Fest

A few years ago, local film aficionado Michael Suglio was watching a few bands play at Now That's Class when he realized that hosting a film festival in an informal, club-like atmosphere was a good idea. In 2012, he successfully launched his Short.Sweet.Film Fest at Ohio City's Market Garden Brewery. It has since migrated to the Alex Theatre, where it returns this weekend. A slew of shorts will screen over the three-day period (you can find a complete schedule online). Many of the directors will be on hand to answer questions during short sessions that'll be held after their films' screenings. Doors open tonight at 6:30. Tickets are $25 to $150. (Niesel)
