    SCREENING #5 | DEFINING MOMENTS

    There are moments in life that define how our fate will pan out. From the significant to the misguided this selection of shorts brings the characters decisions to the forefront and champions those who put themselves on the line, even if it doesn’t quite work out as planned…
