Palm Springs, CA (PRWEB) June 13, 2014

Brad Schmett, Broker Associate with Luxury Homes by Keller Williams today announced that the real estate community is looking forward with anticipation to the 20th Annual Palm Springs Short Film Festival featuring more than 300 short films from over 50 countries. This seven days of film celebrations will turn the spotlight on luxury homes as film buffs head to the Palm Springs area to attend.

The festival is one of the largest showcases of short films in the nation. With seven days of competition it screens approximately 300 films in a series of 90 minute programs. Films are submitted in multiple categories including animation, student animation, live-action and documentaries. The huge celebration of the art of the short film includes a stellar lineup of seminars, special presentations and receptions and includes a Shortfest Film Market.

Schmett observed that, The art of the short film is really a spectacular accomplishment. In fact, in this particular film festival student submissions are encouraged and are a big part of the format. It is exciting every year to see new and emerging young filmmakers, many of whom have gone on to present at the Sundance Film Festival and even beyond. We always appreciate the boost we get in the real estate community when thousands of film buffs head to the Valley to attend this exciting event. Once people see what a great lifestyle we have to offer they want to relocate or purchase vacation homes. It is always our pleasure to welcome new neighbors.

Passes and tickets went on sale April 1, 2014. Several local venues will host the showings, all sponsored by the Palm Springs International Film Society.
