"One highlight from this year is SAFETY, the critically acclaimed film directed by Fabrice Joubert. Adapted from the short story by Lydia Fitzpatrick, it centers around a small town boy trapped in his school gymnasium as gunfire erupts. The short has been sweeping the festival circuit and has Oscar buzz written all over it." - Miami Short Film Festival
