The students, faculty, and staff of the Cinema Department at City College of San Francisco are happy to announce the 17th annual City Shorts Student Film Festival “Streaming The Future, Breaking The Reel.”

Students are supported in their efforts by noted members of the local film community, who come in to help jury the finalists.
