We Like Short Shorts: Reviewing the Oscar Documentary Short Films

by Rosalie Lewis

An upside to my perhaps unhealthy obsession with the Oscars is that for every less than great nominee I make myself watch (looking at you, Golda), I get to discover some pretty nifty short films. Not every year is a great year for the Oscar nominated short films, but there’s always at least a few worth tracking down. This year, I found the most rewarding viewing in the Documentary Short category—all of which were easily available online, as an added bonus.
