If you can’t make it to Park City within the next ten days a taste from the 2013 Sundance Film Festival has made its way online. As we’ve seen time and time again, short films are often our first glimpse at emerging talent and we previously shared six different short films set to screen at Sundance in the coming week, but now eight additional works have been released for your viewing pleasure.
While the most notable one of the bunch is a 9-minute short from Babel, 21 Grams and Amores Perros screenwriter Guillermo Arriaga (featuring cinematography from frequent Steven Spielberg collaborator Janusz Kaminski), there’s also one starring Martin Starr titled The Apocalypse, a Greek tragedy acted out by Belgian roosters and another featuring a twist on the zombie tale. Check them all out below, and again, if you want to watch all fourteen head over here.
