Cash Prize for the Winner: In recognition of outstanding filmmaking talent, Euboea International Short Film Festival awards a generous cash prize of 2000 euros to the winner of the festival and two more cash prizes. The competitive spirit adds an element of suspense and anticipation, encouraging filmmakers to showcase their best work and pushing the boundaries of creativity.

Open Summer Cinema Venue: Our festival takes place in a unique open-air cinema venue right by the seaside, in Chalkida, Greece, just an hour away from Athens.

Live Screenings: Experience the magic of cinema on the big screen with live screenings of carefully curated short films. From compelling narratives to innovative visual storytelling, each film promises to captivate and inspire. The communal atmosphere of the open-air venue adds an extra layer of excitement to the shared cinematic journey.

Networking Opportunities: Connect with fellow filmmakers, industry professionals, and film enthusiasts. Share insights, discuss techniques, and forge new collaborations in an informal and friendly environment. The festival provides a unique opportunity to build lasting connections within the vibrant film community.
For that reason, we offer hospitality to some of the directors whose films will be selected, as we cover part or all of their travel expenses to visit Chalkida and accommodation as well.

Cultural Experience: Immerse yourself in the rich cultural heritage of Chalkida and Evia Island. The festival not only celebrates filmmaking but also embraces the local spirit, offering attendees a taste of the island's traditions, cuisine, and hospitality.

"Euboea International Short Film Festival" invites you to be part of a cinematic journey that transcends the screen and becomes a shared memory, blending the art of film with the beauty of nature.
Join us for four unforgettable days of creativity, inspiration, and the joy of storytelling by the sea.
