WHAT MAKES OUR FESTIVAL DIFFERENT?
Every filmmaker gets FEEDBACK included with the price of submission regardless if their film is selected or not.
Our CATEGORIES ARE BASED ON BUDGET so micro-budget shorts don't have to compete with fully funded films.
Winning filmmaker walks away with our £1,000 FILM FUND.
