10 Under 10 Film Festival

10 Under 10 was an annual showcase of very short, very low-budget documentary and experimental films by University of Texas at Austin students, created in 2002 by documentary filmmaker and UT Radio-Television-Film professor Ellen Spiro. The name was the rule: ten films, each under 10 minutes and made for under $10, loosely enforced and meant to reward ideas over budgets. The Austin Film Society presented it through its Texas Documentary Tour each May, first at the Alamo Drafthouse Downtown and later at the Alamo Ritz. A fifth-anniversary program, 10 Under 10: the First Five Years, screened in May 2007. The last documented edition, presented with the UT Documentary Center, ran May 12, 2010.
