Sky Movies Indie is committed to bringing the best independent and independent-minded movies from around the world directly into your living room. Alongside its prize-winning, critically acclaimed feature films, Indie is showcasing the best in short films every day between 8am and 9am.
Partnering with digital channel ShortsTV, Indie proudly present specially selected mini-movies, in October featuring such names as Superbad's Michael Cera, Spaced's Mark Heap, and Coupling's Richard Coyle.
The 8am slot proves that these shorts are movies in their own right, telling memorable stories with imagination, flair, verve, and a freedom often not afforded their bigger budgeted cousins.
Other films on offer include the comedy The Pro, tackling the thorny subject of golf and self-help videos, and well-mounted sci-short Airlock, starring Michael Sheen.
And Michael Cera, star of Juno and Arrested Development, is trying to make a good first impression on his prom date's family in the wacky, unforgettable Darling Darling.
So make a date with Sky Movies Indie, and see that although these movies are short are running time, they're big on ambition, talent, and achievement.
ShortsTV can be found on Sky channel 342.
