The ATA Film & Video Festival's shorts recall misshapen vinyl spinning in refreshingly erratic circles, with an anything-goes spirit running tonight's series of low-budget gems. Guy Maddin's Old Hollywood pastiche is a highlight, but two particularly magical shorts steal the show: Paul Clipson's out-of-focus Echo Park has a haunting visual style, strewn with distorted flora and urban ephemera, while Martin Hansen's Paradise Drift is a tense mystery involving a wordless, otherworldly journey.
