A Festival of Experimental, Essay, First Person, and Artists' Film
Cosmic Rays is an annual celebration of non-commercial short films that extend the idea of film as art. Cosmic Rays screens work that:
Experiments with the formal possibilities of film and video.
Explores hybrid forms and the hard-to-describe spaces between filmmaking modes and genres.
Speaks with a personal or poetic voice, or explores novel ways of telling stories.
Eschews convention and commerce.
Has utopian aspirations and weird friends.
Cosmic Rays is excited by filmmaking that expands our idea of what film is and what it can be.
The festival will take place March 31 -April 2nd, 2022 at the Forest Theater in downtown Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
