Berlin Short Film Festival is a film festival with a special emphasis on independent short films, which annually takes place in Berlin, Germany. It screens German and international short films with a runtime under 50 minutes and awards them in various categories.[1]
The festival was founded in 2014 and takes place at historic Babylon cinema in Berlin[2] The selection of the festival is international, and it awards films in eight categories.[3] Many international filmmakers attend the event, and foreign language films are usually screened with English subtitles due to the international audience.[4]
Friends of short films may rejoice: Inside the Babylon, "Berlin Short Film Festival" showcases (...) the best short films of Europe.
It’s a big chance to talk about short movies far away from the established industry, a great opportunity of getting new input. But there’s also a big focus on networking and building a big community.
