15th Annual 90-Second Newbery Film Festival
On Saturday, February 28, Angel Alburez, Matthew Lafi, and Chris Torres, 7th-grade STEAM students, attended the 15th Annual 90-Second Newbery Film Festival at the Brooklyn Public Library. The 90-Second Newbery Film Festival is an annual nationwide video contest in which young filmmakers create short films that summarize Newbery Award–winning books in 90 seconds. The films must stay true to the core of the plot while also incorporating a unique and creative twist.
