Brejning Film Festival is an international short film festival designed to give the city and filmlovers an extraordinary experience, and the opportunity to experience a part of the Danish and international film culture which is greatly underestimated and hidden: the short film.
We are an audience focused festival and by submitting your film to our festival, you get a perfect opportunity to get a true audience responds.
Please note we screen at Cafe Brejning on a big monitor/tv. This provides the best picture and sound for our audience.
Our finest awards are the two audience awards. Those are giving solely based on the audience rating and nominations. If you win one of these, it doen't get much better!
The number of passionate and independent short film producers all around the world is growing and the Danish film and media schools make excellent short films.
We want to be a screening platform for these films.
We encourage you to submit your work!

The selection:
We have an initial closed prescreening by a selected local jury.
For the official selected films we use a two-part jury; an jury with people from the film industry and an audience jury. We believe a film is only a big succes if both are excited.
Tha attending audience at the screenings solely pick the Audience Award and Audience sweetheart.

Brejning is a town by Vejle Fjord, Denmark, with magnificent nature and a love for sailing. It is an area which has developed from a disability center to a luxury area with an increasing number of households and families, and where old historian buildings and new modern architecturally designed houses excist in harmony.
The number of sports clubs, and the activity level in the area is very high, and the interest in community and culture is great.
