October 18-20 10 Or Less Film Festival (shorts)

I met the organizers of this and they are cool, non-short attention span people. But if the stress and strife of the modern world is getting you down, or you are just curious about the art of short story telling on the wide screen, then maybe this is the perfect diversion. They have parties and panels, so you may find the festival pass useful. There is plenty of info on their website: http://www.10orlessfest.com/ At the Hollywood Theater and various locations.
