Iron-Mule-logoABOUT THIS SHOW

The Iron Mule is New York’s longest-running short comedy film festival, screening monthly since April 2002. Before they were famous, Stephen Colbert, Dan Harmon, Aziz Ansari, Lena Dunham, Seth MacFarlane, Abbi Jacobson & Ilana Glazer showed their films at the Iron Mule. But we don’t care about famous names — the Iron Mule is a fun, accessible festival, where filmmakers & film fans can meet & mingle. The festival is hosted by filmmaker Jay Stern and filmmaker/comedian Victor Varnado.
