Bring the world's most innovative film festival into your own home.

The Best of Resfest is a stellar collection of 16 hand picked short films from the archives of Resfest, a preeminent event that travels the world, showcasing outstanding works from emerging artists in the areas of filmmaking, broadcast design and music video. Best of Resfest will add an elite group of today's pioneering digital filmmakers to your DVD collection.

Highlights of this collection include Tommy Pallotta and Bob Sabiston's Snack and Drink, a Resfest favorite that is now a part of the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art in New York; Mike Mills' Deformer, a portrait of legendary skateboarder and artist Ed Templeton; Tongues and Taxis, Michael Overbeck's hilarious hand drawn animation tour de force and winner of the Audience Choice Award at Resfest 2000; and Max, a gripping war drama by a group appropriately called AWOL, that takes place in the trenches of a backyard where toy soldiers battle for supremacy.
