Program length: 57 min.
The University of Michigan Department of
Screen Arts & Cultures returns to the TCFF
with their annual program of two shorts
showcasing some of our state’s top young
filmmaking talent. With the aid of a memory
recall solution, recovering alcoholic Denny
trades his present and future to go back to
the past to get things right with the love of his
life in director Ryan McDonough’s “Present
Day.” And in Claudia Fuentes’ “The Dejects,”
Ivy gets rejected from her dream school,
and her classmates seek to give her the high
school experience she never had, forcing Ivy
to finally question the madness of the college
acceptance game. In Person: University of
Michigan Student Filmmakers.
