Paramount Presents: Manhattan Short Film Festival
Limited Capacity Event: 100 of 1041 seats available
You be the judge!
Film lovers around the world will unite to view and vote on the nine finalists’ films in the 23rd Annual MANHATTAN SHORT Film Festival. MANHATTAN SHORT is the only event of its kind. The Final Nine screen simultaneously across the world during a one-month period, with the Best Film and Best Actor awards determined by ballots cast by the audiences in each participating venue.
This year’s Final Nine selections use drama, comedy, and animation to address an astonishing number of themes, ranging from identity to parenthood to the seemingly universal frustration caused by the Department of Motor Vehicles no matter the country. The directorial voices are both male and female from countries large and small, often inspired by personal and sometimes harrowing, experience. This year’s Final Nine screening also is a rare instance when gripping dramas from Iran, Israel, and the State of Palestine are featured in the same program.
NOTE: There are no virtual screenings. Please support your local participating venue as circumstances allow so they can keep their doors open. Many are extending showtimes to accommodate reduced audience regulations.
