Glass Ceiling Breakers Festival Best of the Fest 2024
- Tue, Sep 10
Run Time: 120 min.
Theatre Revolution and Bedford Playhouse present the best short films from the 4th Glass Ceiling Breakers Festival, a festival of female identifying filmmakers.
A Q&A with the filmmakers in attendance follows the screening.
Presenting (in alphabetical order – running order may vary):
Alright Robot – To cope with isolation, a Jewish millennial befriends her robotic voice assistant; but can a robot really help her navigate the experience of being human?
Breaking and Entering: Episode 1 – An uptight personal organizer goes to battle with an unhinged millennial lifestyle guru in a mad competition to offer their clients the most life-changing decluttering experience.
Father Forgive Me For I Have Sinned – When an aging priest hears the confession of a mysterious stranger, the tables turn and he is forced to confront his secrets, and confess his own sins.
Hell Week – It’s “Hell Week” for this community theater production of “Mame,” and tensions are running high.
Holy Moly Meteorite! – It’s an awkward date and it also happens to be their last minute on earth!
How We Met – A couple recall how they got together where their version of events don’t quite align with reality. This is a fun, off-beat comedy that will probably deliver a few home-truths.
Kairos – A middle-aged woman’s idyllic life is upended when she has to put her mother in a rest home.
Lettre La – A charming West-Indian radio hosts sets out to do his weekly show when an unusual letter throws him out of groove.
Meteoroid – A passionate geologist Ernie helps you differentiate space debris.
Papa George – Betty’s world shifts when she stumbles upon a hidden truth: her beloved grandfather George, harbors a secret—illiteracy.
Parenthesis – When a young woman escapes to a house in the jungle to take a “mental health day”, her loneliness makes her even more confused.
Uncontrollable – When a novelist steps away from writing his latest story, strange things unfold.
Welcome to Theatre – Two slightly lovable, mediocre white theatre producers (think Archie Bunker and Meathead!), try to revive their festival and save the theatre from financial ruin in a post pandemic world.
