Join us for an unforgettable night of independent cinema at Dahlonega, Georgia's very own film festival. Sozo Bear Presents: A Night at the Movies isn’t just a one-night event; it’s a true celebration of the artistry and impact of short films. Though shorter than features, these films capture the essence of storytelling in its purest form—condensing powerful emotions, complex characters, and captivating narratives into a limited runtime. Each short film is a testament to the beauty of brevity, where every frame counts, and the storytelling leaves a lasting impression.
