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.
