Tromadance is the first film festival wholeheartedly devoted to filmmakers and fans. Unlike other film festivals, Tromadance does not charge filmmakers to submit their films. Entrance to all screenings is free and open to the public. Also, there are no VIP reservations or preferential treatment regarding films, panels or parties of any kind given. This DVD contains the best short films from the first few Tromadance festivals, including David Schmoeller's "Please Kill Mr. Kinski," Carey Burtt's "The Psychotic Odyssey of Richard Chase," Lee Demarbre's "Harry Knuckles and the Treasure of the Aztec Mummy," Steve Herold's "H.R. Pukenshette," Barry Norman's "Deadbeats" and others.
