Revoluções Curtas returns to Filmin for a second edition, where there is no age limit to participate. Following the success of the first edition, the online short film festival will once again give visibility to the voices of Portuguese cinema.

7th Ooty Short Film Festival (Ooty SFF)
December 26-28, 2025
The Nilgiris Film Club (NFC) is thrilled to announce the 7th edition of the Ooty Short Film Festival (Ooty SFF), scheduled to take place from December 26th to 28th, 2025. We cordially invite filmmakers from across the globe to join us in celebrating the art of independent short films in the picturesque mountains of the Western Ghats.
About the Festival
Since its inception, Ooty SFF has grown into a vibrant platform for showcasing exceptional short films. Our carefully curated sections feature some of the most remarkable experimental and artist-made short films, ensuring a diverse and inspiring cinematic journey for all attendees.
In 2025, we are excited to introduce a new initiative: Citizen Jury, A citizen jury at our short film festival evaluates films from a public perspective, offering a crucial non-industry viewpoint.
Our Vision
At Ooty SFF, we strive to curate a program that embodies unique and original artistic visions. Our focus is on short films that boldly push the boundaries of both form and concept, opening up numerous avenues for interpretation and understanding.
We have a special interest in works by emerging filmmakers and artist-made shorts, believing that these voices bring fresh and innovative perspectives to the cinematic landscape.
Opportunities for Filmmakers
Ooty SFF is more than just a screening platform. We provide filmmakers with:
A platform to share their work with a discerning audience
Exposure to diverse filmmaking styles and narratives
Opportunities to be part of a growing community of independent filmmakers
Recognition through our Golden Elephant Awards for Indian filmmakers and digital awards (NFTs) for international filmmakers, ensuring both physical and modern digital forms of recognition
Submit Your Film
We welcome submissions from filmmakers of all backgrounds and experiences. If you have a short film that challenges conventions, explores new territories, or tells a compelling story in an innovative way, we want to see it!
Join us for the 7th Ooty Short Film Festival and be part of a celebration of cinematic creativity in the heart of the Nilgiris.
The Ooty Short Film Festival is produced by the NilgirisNext Foundation for Arts & Culture (NXF), formerly known as Nilgiris Film Club (NFC).
The Raul Ruiz School Film Festival has been progressively positioned in its three previous versions as the first experimental school film festival in the country, with an increasing reach in different regions of the country. This is a positive indicator of the impact that this initiative has had. In this sense, the described initiative has become a recognized window of diffusion for school cinematographic art. In addition, the possibilities of artistic exploration that the festival suggests through its categories and evaluation criteria have enabled the production teams to investigate and experiment with different film languages. In this sense, the new challenges that the festival offers in its third version are, on the one hand, to continue and strengthen the diffusion and appreciation of school cinema and, on the other, to advance in aesthetic reflection and exploration, as integral contributions to education, with an emphasis on creativity, the generation of projects and the experimentation of artistic languages.
This is why the IV Raul Ruiz School Film Festival is an opportunity to broaden the creative horizons of the diffusion of art and audiovisual culture in educational communities, promoting a creative framework through instances that aim to improve the quality of artistic teaching and to address the interests, social, cultural and economic contributions of the communities.
UNESCO is clear in pointing out that the objectives of development and improvement in the quality of education must be accompanied by a substantial change in the area of social development of the establishments. Educational improvement projects (PME) cannot always advance comprehensively towards the financing of instances for the diffusion, appreciation and creation of inter-school artistic projects.
In accordance with the achievement of these objectives, the Festival in its previous versions has been adding relevant actors from the educational and academic community. Today we are supported by the Schools to Film program of the Cineteca Nacional and the Sarmiento Ruiz Archive (letters of support are attached). Those who have joined have opened and strongly promoted the possibilities of this festival at a national level and with a strong content in experimentation, creativity and collaborative work in the field of learning for girls, boys and adolescents. In this sense, the prospects have been auspicious, having as a background that in the first and second version we have been accompanied by the application of more than 80 films from all over Chile and the world.
