Flickers originally is a monthly event held at the Starr Bar in Brooklyn, New York, which screens a variety of experimental works for live audiences. The event is run by the Brooklyn-based programmer Evan Schwartz. Now Flickers has gone outside of New York for the first time.
The festival is happening in Eindhoven at different locations and times every three to four months.
For the first edition we had a full house with over a hundred members in the audience to witness 11 short films listed in the bottom. We recommend watching them to give you an idea what we're looking for.
The second edition had a full cinema room as well and with eight of the ten filmmakers present, there was plenty of interaction. For the shorts selected you can also look at the bottom.

There are no awards or prizes rewarded during Flickers. we solely exist as a space where the experiment gets a podium. With this we generate an audience for the creators, as well as give the audience an accessible program of an underexposed genre.
