Nantucket Shorts Festival

The Nantucket Shorts Festival returned to the big screen on October 8, during which the sold-out event broke a record with 20 submissions. After audiences watched all 20 films, they voted for several awards, including best film (Lost in Nevers Land by Penny Dey), best new filmmaker (Contemplating by Vivian Crosby) and more. This winter, the Dreamland will show all the films for the rest of the island and visitors to enjoy.
