Croatian One-Minute Film Festival (COMFF) is the oldest international film festival established in the Republic of Croatia. The festival fosters a specific form – one minute which is, no matter of genre, very challenging and encouraging for filmmakers' creativity.
Films from the festival's programme "Join Us For A Minute" have been presented to UNESCO ambassadors in Paris in 2004 and so far in over 50 cities in more than 20 countries on 3 continents as well as numerous Croatian cities and festivals. Selected films from COMFF were also the exclusive exhibits of the One-Minute Film Museum, which took place from the 15th of June until 15th of September 2024 in Prague, Czech Republic. We received around 11000 one-minute films from 105 countries all over the world during our 32 years.
The Official Programme of the festival will be shown on June 13, 2025 at several locations in Požega. During the festival days, a selection of one-minute films from the previous editions will be screened. Various festival programmes (often there are exhibition of photographs, films or the international film quiz for filmmakers and guests) will also take place. In addition, a half-day excursion for all the guest will be organized. During the whole festival week, the flags of the countries participating in the official programme are at the main town square.
All the guests and filmmakers are having the opportunity to enjoy Croatian hospitality, a loto f really good food and drinks (especially wine, as Požega is in the famous wine region), and good time. Check our photo gallery at www.crominute.hr to see how things went over the years!
