For those in Northern California who are able to get the KQED Arts channel and are interested, they have a weekly show named Imagemakers, where they showcase really great Shortfilms from all over the world. Read more about it here:

And for a list of films showcased so far and a description of them:

Some of these films are beautifully made.
Highly highly recommended.
