Cosmic Rays is an annual celebration of non-commercial short films that extend the idea of film as art. Cosmic Rays screens work that:

• Experiments with the formal possibilities of film and video.
• Explores hybrid forms and the hard-to-describe spaces between filmmaking modes and genres.
• Speaks with a personal or poetic voice, or explores novel ways of telling stories.
• Eschews convention and commerce.
• Has utopian aspirations and weird friends.

Our 6th edition will take place March 1-2, 2024 at the Varsity Theatre in downtown Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
