filmstream 06

artstream in downtown Rochester, NH  presents Rochester’s first second Short Film Festival: “filmstream”.  In the spirit of community, film as an art form and the area’s desire for more film related events, artstream has recognized this need and decided to help fill it. The selected works will be shown on November 18 from 6-9pm at artstream, 56 n. main, rochester, nh

The festival features short films 15 minutes or less in both the student and adult categories. Last year’s event was a huge success with a sell-out audience. Trophies designed by local artist Adam Pearson will be given to the winners of the judges’ and audience’s choice awards.
