CyberStar L.P., a provider of broadband services developed by Loral Space & Communications, has teamed this week with independent film producers/distributors Wavelength Releasing and digital film server manufacturer QuVIS to distribute and show two short films, Academy Award-winning "Bunny," directed by Chris Wedge, and "Protest," directed by S.D. Katz. Audiences viewed both short films at Cannes' eCinema exhibition at the Palais Miramar on May 18 and 19, and will also be able to see it at an additional screening May 20. I found full story at
