FESTIVAL MISSION

The European Short Film Festival’s mission to bring quality international independent film to the widest possible audience in Berlin and beyond.

The Festival aims to provide a cultural alternative to the commercial film experience, to support independent filmmakers, and promote the art of filmmaking

The European Short Film Festival was established to utilize the power of film to further the goal of inter-cultural understanding among nations and to assist in the building of a shared artistic experience.

No medium is better positioned than film to enable people to understand, question and affect the world around them.
