Hi Kimberly! I What an assignment! can just tell you that most of the shorts never get a formal distributor. I suggest you to contact the filmmakers themselves. We have been working with the Spanish ones and I can pass you two: LA RUTA NATURAL: You can contact maker Alex Pastor <[email protected]> and THE GUILT David Victori Blaya <[email protected]>. I do not have the email for Marco Besas (Leyenda del Espantapajaros) but you should be able to find it pretty easily on the web or Facebook. Good luck!

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
