Every year KVIS brings you the Oscar nominated live action and animated short films – a.k.a. “shorts” – within a few weeks of the Academy Awards show. It is usually a packed house at the Katonah Village Library with drinks, movie snacks, neighbors, and great new short films!
This year the screenings are on Saturday, March 5th for the Animated Short Films and Friday, March 11th for the Live Action Short Films.
Please note that these films are for Adults Only. They contain mature content — full details below.

Important: the Animated program is FOR ADULTS ONLY. It is NOT a kid-friendly release like it’s been in previous years. THE WINDSHIELD WIPER features male and female nudity, sex, and adult themes. BESTIA features disturbing imagery, animal abuse, bestiality, and rather extreme violence. These films are not intended for children.
