About the festival

WE ARE A SHORT FILM FESTIVAL BASED IN HACKNEY, LONDON. We will screen the finalist films on a specific Hackney venue TBC as the current Covid-19 restrictions may involve changes in venue.

At Screener Short Films we showcase the best and most  outstanding international short films.
Our mission is to encourage and support filmmakers throughout their creative process in order to provide the recognition they deserve.
We are a platform whose main goal is to provide a space for short independent films which create their own unique language and content.

We encourage all filmmakers to submit their films, regardless of their country of origin, the film's content or a filmmaker's background. All genres are welcome, even though to make things simple we will accept films in four different wide categories.

We will give recognition awards to those film voted more popular in our network, and to do so we will take in account four major categories :
*Best Narrative
*Best Documentary
*Best Animation
*Best Experimental

​We will screen all finalist films from our 'Official Selection' in front of a live audience, and all films will be promoted via the festival's social media. Four winners, one per each category, will be announce on the night of the event.
We are non profit, so any money made will be invested in continuing the festival growth.
