Rabbit Heart Poetry Film Festival releases longlist
Rabbit Heart, the western Massachusetts-based poetry film festival, released its 2018 longlist this week. View it on their website.

Rabbit Heart will be awarding $800 prizes in seven categories this year: Best Overall Production, Best Animated, Best Music/Sound, Best Smartphone Production, Best Under 1 Minute, Best Valentine, and the Shoots! Youth Prize.
Tickets to the awards ceremony and the matinee screening are now on sale.
