About Us

Welcome! We are Short Shorts Film Festival, based in Brooklyn, New York. We are all about celebrating hot summer days with friends and showcasing the exceptional filmmakers from our community and beyond! We believe that short form filmmaking is the essence of independent cinema, and our goal is to elevate it as a medium in and of itself. Good things come in small packages, and after all, life is short.

2025

Join us in August for a night of short shorts and even shorter films. The festival runs approximately 3 hours in the evening, ending with a Q&A with the present filmmakers. We will celebrate with live music and a social hour afterwords. Three prizes will be awarded: Best Short Short and Best Short-short-short-short, chosen by a panel of judges, and Audience Choice, chosen by an audience vote.

We estimate an audience size of 150 people and a showing of 15 films.
