The Short thrills continue! Short+Sweet Film continues in Sydney from 29 March with weekly* screenings of all new short films.
Next Saturday is Comedy & Drama… then, on April 5 a showcase of the work of filmmakers under 25.
The silver screen iteration of ‘the biggest little theatre festival in the world’ is already an international hit with Short+Sweet Hollywood among the regular overseas festivals annually showcasing a slew of fresh new Aussie and other international movies!
Short+Sweet founder and artistic director Mark Cleary promises “a world class festival… with an A-List Hollywood finale.”
“What stories can you tell in 10 minutes? There are no limits, other than your imagination!”
Heats continue on March 29 with Comedy/Horror – the 2nd weekly Saturday screenings – from 3 pm at Building M, Music Department, 18 Mary Anne Streets, Ultimo (just round the corner from Turner Hall where the world-famous Short+Sweet theatre festival is in the swing of an 8 week run of its own).
The Short+Sweet Film Festival is unique in that, for just one entry, filmmakers are in consideration for all the international festivals, opening up their chances of having their work screened around the world.
With a strong international network that is constantly expanding, the festival offers every imaginable genre and supports all sorts of filmmakers -from seasoned pros to emerging artists.
