MOCA's Optic Nerve Film Festival
Thursday July 26 at 7 and 9 p.m.MOCA's Optic Nerve Film Festival has been, and remains to be, one of the few venues for South Florida's independent filmmakers to submit short movies (from 50 seconds to 6 minutes in length). Now in its 9th year, Optic Nerve continues to spotlight a wide range of genres including: narrative, abstract, film-noir and animation, just to name a few. After the initial screenings, one of the undiscovered magnum opuses will be chosen by MOCA's panel of judges and purchased for the museum's collection with funds provided by Starbucks Coffee Company. In the past, winning Optic Nerve pieces have easily contested those of video installation experts that are mostly seen during Miami's annual Art Basel convention. Help keep independent filmmaking in Miami alive by supporting these innovative installments. General admission is $5 and the Optic Nerve screenings are free with museum admission. RSVP is required. Seating is limited and not guaranteed. Starbucks reception between the 7 and 9 p.m. screenings.
