Stuff that isn’t SXSW
Chick flicks? Tag ‘em as you will, but the myriad fine films comprising the annual Lunafest handily defy simplistic stereotypes and hammer-down paltry presuppositions.
Presented by Austin’s mighty Reel Women, with assists from the Jewish Community Association of Austin and Women’s Division, the touring program of 10 juried short films unspools at 2 p.m. Sunday at the Dell Jewish Community Campus (7300 Hart Ln.).
The movies “range from animated shorts to fictional drama, and cover topics such as women’s health, body image, spirituality, relationships, cultural diversity and breaking barriers.” They’re about and/or by women, but they are also firmly universal. One, “Red Wednesday,” is by Austin filmmaker Nazanin Shirazi.
Tickets are $10. Proceeds go to several good causes. Tix, details and more Reel Women news HERE.
