Spotted this over at Joa's blog and i'm trying to help her give it a little exposure...

Erm... despite the rather deceiving title (why oh why couldn't they just add "Films" in after "Shorts"?) it sounds like a pretty interesting event. In a nutshell you get to watch 10 short films each ranging from 5-30 mins for RM5 and all except two are in English - not bad wat?

Anyhow, details below (check out Joa's post for a complete listing and description of the movies being shown):

Venue ~ Auditorium of HELP University College, BZ-2 Pusat Bandar Damansara, 50490, Kuala Lumpur

The Company of Shorts will showcase some of the latest works by both new and established local filmmakers. The films cover various themes, subjects, styles and forms. What makes this batch of short films so special though was the communal effort and rapport that existed between the filmmakers. The filmmakers' each helped produce, edit, act (in some occasions) and handle the lighting. This joint effort helped to bring the filmmakers and their works together. [Read more]

Joa'll be going for the 3pm showing on Saturday while yours truly will be going for the 8pm show on Sunday. If you're interested in coming along at either time and would like some company please leave a comment at the relevant blog or give us a call.
