Official Selection 2025

Eight programmes, each a curated journey through the artistry, storytelling, and imagination of short film. Our 2025 line-up spanned every mood and genre - from laugh-out-loud comedies to urgent documentaries, surreal animations to poignant dramas - all celebrating the power of short-form cinema on the big screen.
