The Sham is Back! The only film festival that exclusively celebrates mockery, spoofs, satire and parody returns to Saint Louis.

The Sham Film Festival is presented by Dick to Dick, LLC Executive Consulting. The festival takes place Friday, September 25th, and Saturday the 26th  at Winifred Moore Auditorium on the campus of Webster University.

The festival will also feature FOUR St. Louis filmmaking teams. In addition to TWO Short Film Programs, the festival will include the St. Louis premiere of three feature-length films from L.A.-based filmmakers.

Here’s the line-up for the 2nd Annual Sham Film Festival:

Shorts Program I – Friday, September 25 at 7:00pm to 8:15pm
A collection of hilarious short films that mock, satirize and spoof everything from reality TV to movie trailers.

Writer/director Jillian Armenante (acting credits include The Dark Knight Rises, ABC’s Fresh Off The Boat) has crafted a women-in-prison spoof with a 50s-inspired rock n’ roll soundtrack and an Orange is the New Black sense of female empowerment.
