Glasgow Short Film Festival

Glasgow Short Film Festival, the largest competitive short film festival in Scotland, returns to CCA for a ninth year to champion new international film talent and celebrate diverse forms of cinematic expression.

This year’s highlights include classics of Hollywood horror, reduced to their essence as single reel 16mm projections, and Berlin filmmaker Jan Soldat’s unflinching portraits from the world of sado-masochism. On the fifth anniversary of the start of the Syrian conflict we look at the work emerging from the beleaguered nation, and we join forces with Scottish Ballet to examine what makes a good dance film.

With the ever-popular Scottish competition, LUX Scotland pitching workshops, and myriad masterclasses, screenings and discussions taking place at CCA, the building will be buzzing with cinematic possibility for four days in March.
