Become an official film critic for the night! Join SCLSNJ at the Warren Branch for an exclusive screening of the world-renowned MANHATTAN SHORT Film Festival.

What is MANHATTAN SHORT? It’s the ultimate global film event! Every year, ten short films (all under 20 minutes) are selected as finalists from thousands of entries worldwide. During this special week, over 100,000 film lovers across six continents gather in theaters to watch the exact same collection of films. Every selected film is Oscar-eligible, meaning you’ll get a sneak peek at tomorrow’s award-winning directors and actors before anyone else!

You Decide Who Wins! The fun doesn't end when the credits roll. Stick around after the screening to:

Vote: Cast your official ballot for Best Picture and Best Actor to help choose the worldwide winners.

Chat: Enjoy informal, lively discussions about your favorite films with library staff and fellow movie buffs.

Connect: Whether you're a dedicated film buff or just looking for a fun night out, come experience world-class cinema on the library's large digital screen!
