LAST BLUE MOON, THE is in the KIDS FIRST! Film Festival - it may not be a regular, endorsed title
The Last Blue Moon is a captivating short film that blends mythology and a spooky prophecy to keep viewers on the edge of their seats. Created by a middle school director with a clear vision, the story follows Eleanor, a ghost from the 1800s who must find her body before the 100th blue moon or be trapped in her house for eternity. With the help of Christopher, the home's new resident, she races against time. The plot is remarkably well-paced, packing an engaging narrative into just ten minutes without ever feeling rushed. Beautiful, era-appropriate costumes clearly define the time periods, while creative, unique camera angles and well-executed visual effects elevate the production. Though the lack of background music during dialogue creates occasional awkward silences, the film's overall charm shines through. It delivers a sweet message about how receiving help from a friend can help you achieve your goals. I give The Last Blue Moon 3.5 out of 5 stars for ages 5 to 12. -- Valerie M., KIDS FIRST!

Eleanor, the ghost of a girl who passed away in the 1800s, must find her body before the 100th blue moon. If she fails, Death will never let her be at peace and she'll be trapped in her house for eternity. Good thing she has Christopher, the house's new resident, to help!
