Oscar-Nominated Short Documentaries a Must-See Movie Experience

Be Prepared to be Inspired...

The five short films nominated for Oscars in the Documentary Short Subject category were extraordinary and it is safe to say that each film was worthy of an award.  Moviegoers have a rare opportunity to see all five films at once in a two-part feature titled The Oscar Nominated Short Films:  Documentary, which is playing at the Opera Plaza Cinema on Van Ness Avenue in San Francisco. 

The featured films are: 

~ The Lady in Number 6:  Music Saved My Life (Canada)
~ Karama Has No Walls (Yemen/UK/United Arab Emirates)
~ Facing Fear (USA)
~ CaveDigger (USA)
~ Prison Terminal:  The Last Days of Private Jack Hall (USA)

Although the documentaries tell the stories of vastly different people, they share some common themes, and each film is, in its own way, very inspirational.  Moviegoers will find these films both accessible and riveting.
