May 23-24  

Davis Varsity Theatre

The Davis Varsity Theatre presents the Department of Theatre and Dance’s 12th Annual UC Davis Film Festival produced in association with UC Davis Cinema and Digital Media and co-sponsored by Art Studio.

This year’s short film submissions include a mockumentary about a washed-up child star, a comedy where three twenty-somethings attain mundane abilities after eating a very old casserole, an existential drama about a woman struggling with her life’s purpose, an animated action hero adventure and a documentary about finding the perfect bone marrow donor. The films will undergo a rigorous selection process to determine which make it to the festival screening.

The 12th Annual UC Davis Film Festival plays at the Davis Varsity Theatre Wednesday and Thursday, May 23-24, at 8:30 p.m. Tickets are $7 and $10, available at the Davis Varsity Theatre box office starting May 16.
