Internationale Kurzfilmwoche Regensburg

Logo of Short Film Week Regensburg

The International Short Film Week Regensburg was founded in 1994 by Arbeitskreis Film e.V. as a nonprofit festival and screens approximately 250 short films over eleven days each March in the charming cinemas of the Old Town. The program centers on four competitions: the International Competition, the German Competition, the Architecture Film Competition (international), and the Regional Competition. Live-action, documentary, animation, experimental film, and hybrid formats are presented on an equal footing. The special program typically consists of various themed programs as well as a country focus, masterclasses and talks, a late-night section, film programs for children, live events, and interdisciplinary formats.

Prix Philoxenia – The Short Film Competition on Hospitality
What if a simple short film could change the way we see others?

The Prix Philoxenia invites young people aged 12 to 24 to share their vision of hospitality through a 1-to-5-minute film: welcoming others, reaching out, overcoming differences, and creating connections. Whether social, cultural, intergenerational, sporting, religious, or linked to migration, hospitality lies at the heart of the stories that bring us together.

Open to both first-time and experienced filmmakers, the competition is accessible to everyone: a simple smartphone is all you need to take part. Entries can be submitted individually, as a group, or as part of a school or educational institution project.

Rather unusual, rather trapped on the border between dream and reality, silent film has for several years found affirmation at the PSSST! Silent Film Festival organised by the Trešnjevka Cultural Centre.

PSSST! is a unique film festival presenting the art of silent film in a new, exciting and entertaining way. This Festival is a rare gem on the cultural scene which lacks initiatives offering artists the opportunity to try out their skills in this specific (and demanding!) artistic form.

The event confirms its status as a festival in the classic sense of the word through its competition programme in which contemporary “silent” titles are screened to an audience. The best film in the competition is awarded the Brcko Grand Prize, the official award of PSSST! named after the main [...]

Short film festival

The Department of Culture of the Municipality of Mentana, organizes the seventh edition of the historical audiovisual Festival "STORY IN SHORT".

The idea was born because our territory is rich in testimonies, from the pre-Roman era up to the Risorgimento: the enhancement of this heritage therefore also passes through a film festival that collects the works of authors who have ventured into an area that is not very 'frequented' such as reconstruction and historical analysis through short films, documentaries and audio-documentaries.

There are no content limits set for participation in the festival: all of History will be the subject of the works presented.

The jury will reserve the right to select the works to be screened in the event that the number of works presented [...]
