Shortie Film Festival is an annual film festival based in Williamsburg. During a two day event, we hold live screenings, Q&A's and networking afterparties at a beautiful rustic 19th - century loft. The festival fosters and propels emerging and provocative filmmaking with two days of screenings, Q&As, and afterparties for an audience seeking new voices and perspectives. Shortie Film Festival received over 300 submissions from more than 40 countries in our first open call.
