SCOTT IWASAKI The Park Record The celebration of film continues on the heels of Sundance and Slamdance festivals when Park City Film screens a weekend of Academy Award-nominated short films from Friday through Sunday at the Park City Library’s Jim Santy Auditorium. The screenings are meant to coincide with the 92nd Academy Awards that will take place Sunday night, said Katharine Wang, Park City Film executive director. (See accompanying list for film titles). They don’t have a lot of dead time to hit all the notes and show a full story arc...” COURTESY OF SHORTSTV “Nefta Football Club,” directed by Yves Piat and Damien Megherbi, is an Academy Award-nominated live-action short that will screen Sunday at the Jim Santy Auditorium. Katharine Wang, Park City Film executive director “These are films you may not see outside the festival circuits, so every year we try to bring them back on Oscar weekend,” Wang said. “The Academy Awards have greatly advanced their schedule this year, and for the first time, the awards are going to be held at the beginning of February.” Park City Film will show a different collection of shorts each night due Want to Beat mAIN sT MADNESS? We've got you covered. to time constraints, she said. Friday is animated shorts night, and will be rated PG-13, according to Wang. “The animated films are not necessarily only for children,” she said. “Animated films are used in other countries to address issues and are also appropriate for teens and adults.” Since the Oscar-nominated animated shorts are not as long as other short films, Park City Film will add additional films to round out the evening. “These additional films have been well-regarded throughout the year, but didn’t receive nominations,” Wang said. Saturday’s screenings will feature documentary short films, and the evening will be rated R for violence, language and adult themes. “We usually have to curate these, because they are generally the longer of the short films,” Wang said. “If we screened all of the documentaries, the runtime would be close to four hours. So we make an artistic choice as to which one we may cut.” Saturday is also Park City Film’s annual Oscar Party that runs from 6-8 p.m. in the Community Room across twO f one When: 8 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, with an optional 6 p.m. Saturday Oscar Party; 6 p.m. Sunday Where: Park City Library’s Jim Santy Auditorium, 1255 Park Ave. Cost: $8 for general admission; $7 for students and senior citizens; Saturday ticket prices includes an option for admission to the Oscar party at 6 p.m. and screenings for $50 Web: parkcityfilm.org Please see Films, C-5 WED 22.5.20 - TUES 2.11.20 serving only the best to Park City since 1992 WAHSO VALID WED + SUN - TUES wahso.com 435.615.0300 Oscar-nominated shorts r e s t a u r a n t g r o u p GHIDOTTI'S VALID WED + SUN - TUES ghidottis.com 435.658.0669 WINDY RIDGE CAFe VALID WED + SUN - TUES windyridgecafe.com 435.647.0880 WWW.BWRESTAURANTS.COM OPEN DAILY FOR LUNCH + DINNER 1571 Redstone Center Dr 435 . 575 . 4272 SUSHIBLUEPARKCITY .
