Short film support
Short films
Short films tell stories in concentrated form and often leave more room than their running time might suggest. The productions collected here range from comedy and drama to socially and personally shaped subjects.
Support focused primarily on independent productions from Europe and its wider context, including works by women directors as well as films with queer perspectives and socially relevant themes. Involvement was mainly through private crowdfunding contributions, in some cases as Executive Producer.
