WE ONLY ACCEPT Humour/COMEDY SHORTFILMS

The taSHORtfest is the first festival of short film humour internationally and pioneer in this genre, held in Catalonia level.

It was born from the idea of rewarding the world short film of humour hand some students TCT (Workshop Cinema of Taxonera) a course that still give the Civic Center Teixonera by J.O.Romero of the producer Ozzypiuntur.

This phrase: “We took another step, our passion for cinema” made this idea, and we thought we did finally reality.

  • This is a wonderful festival with the fantastic focus on comedy film. It's run by a fun, sympathetic, super passionate team and is unique in its kind. In 2020 my film 'Ringo Rocket Star' won the festival price and this year 'Covid Love' won the best photography. I received a beautiful handmade award by them. So yes, absolute worth to entry and to support! Till next and thanks for all!
