For the twentyith year, the Nihilist Cultural Foundation presents the Nihilist International Film Festival. This year’s evening of films will be presented online at the Vimeo website. The show will start at 6:30 pm on Saturday, December 19. The festival includes two hours of short films from around the country and around the world. The films range from troubling to hilarious, from profound to completely silly. Pretty much, something for everyone (except children and clergy).
Festival Director Elisha Shapiro commented, “Since 1999, we have been doing this film festival. And things have changed a lot. More people have access to better technology, and more access to film festival. More people are able to make great art expressing their weird nihilist world view. So we have a great selection this year inspite of the pandemic situation.”
Nihilist Film Festival director Elisha Shapiro is a Los Angeles-based conceptual artist. He is known for presenting the 1984 Nihilist Olympics and the 1999 Nihilism Expo. He was also the Nihilist Party candidate for Governor in 2006, for President in 1988, and for LA county sheriff in 1992.
