In what’s becoming an annual tradition, YouTube has partnered with the Sundance Film Festival to offer a small selection of short films through its Screening Room channel. This year you’ll be able to watch a dozen short movies that will be making their debuts at Sundance; they’ve been selected from the 64 shorts to be screened at the festival starting this weekend. It’s not a huge selection, and you won’t be able to see Ashton Kutcher’s portrayal of Steve Jobs, but there’s quite a range of free movies to enjoy — covering everything from the horrors of catnip to, of course, the undead. And when you’re finished watching these, YouTube says the channel will continue to be updated with movies from filmmakers who have been featured at Sundance in the past. Hopefully they’re all as informative as the video below.
