The 11th Annual UC Davis Film Festival is produced by the Department of Theatre & Dance and presented by the Davis Varsity Theatre in association with UC Davis Technocultural Studies and co-sponsored by Film Studies and Art Studio.

The festival sets your finger on the pulse of student-produced cinema. Each year the array of short films is unpredictable and exciting. Filmmakers include a wide range of undergraduate and graduate students from across the campus. Categories include comedy, drama, animation, documentaries and all things in between.
