From micro-movies to viral hits, short film commands our dwindling attention to twist our tastes, dreams and view of the world itself. Always one step ahead of the creative landscape, the genre is a natural home for the visionary, and an outlet for the stories that might otherwise not be told. In 2023, short film is as moving and unorthodox as ever.
The Smalls Film Festival returned to London for its sixteenth annual edition in September 2023, hosting a celebration of the year’s very best shorts at Curzon Hoxton cinema. A new category, Change, was introduced to celebrate the films that spotlight urgent issues affecting the world today.
