What do an up-and-coming basketball star with a fear of bright lights, a JFK Musical murder mystery, a filial (but criminal) son, a swingin’ good time, the drama of a stranger, an outlandish parade, a cursed video game, a grieving widower, two parallel New Year’s Eves, a relationship ending event, and a life lived behind glass have in common?

They are all part of Magic Hour, a free screening of short fiction films made by students in the University of Arizona’s School of Theatre, Film & Television and they will all premiere at The Loft Cinema on May 9 at 7pm.

A short animation film made by students in Nicole Antebi’s School of Art Animation II class will also premiere at Magic Hour.

The screening will be followed by a short Q&A with the filmmakers.
