Film Room (Cinema Obscura)

Minicon 47's film room will be an incarnation of Cinema Obscura in following with our recent recent tradition of showing films that you've probably never heard of rather than just replaying the latest blockbusters that you could easily watch at home.

For 2012, Cinema Obscura plans on going indie and viral! We will show documentaries such as

• Charles Beaumont: The Short Life of Twilight Zone's Magic Man and
• Finding the Future: A Science Fiction Conversation;

Independent narratives such as

• Ink and
• Lunopolis;

International short films like

• Paths of Hate (from Poland),
• Payload (from Austrailia), and
• The Anachronism (from Canada);

And even webseries, such as

• GOLD and
• Aidan 5.
