Now celebrating its 30th anniversary, Image Union keeps evolving – and expanding – to present new, innovative work from filmmakers in Chicago and around the globe. This season is shaping up to be one of our best ever, with everything from dark comedy to Oscar-winning animation, and first-time efforts from promising new filmmakers to award-winning shorts with plenty of star power. And Image Union is still the place for documentaries, experimental work, international films and the best local stuff we can find.

You can now watch many of the short films from this season online – right here. The entire film, or an excerpt, will be available here on our ever-expanding website, for your viewing pleasure.

Films will be presented in letterbox format on WTTW11, and broadcast in full widescreen on WTTWDigital. Also, keep an eye out for films in true high-definition!

"Some of the most vibrant work in the field of independent video and filmmaking."
