Paris Shorts was established by a collective of film lovers and creators based in Paris as a bimonthly online shorts competition dedicated to short filmmaking and independent artists.
Focusing on short films, our aim is to discover talented filmmakers from all over the world and help them promote their work by benefiting of Paris vibrant and creative renown. A dedication well reviewed by our first selected and awarded filmmakers :
"Great festival, really appreciate their work."
"Awesome festival. Thank you!"
"Great festival! Thank you so much for the experience!"
"Great festival. I can’t wait to do it again."
All the winners are promoted on our media partner IndieWrap and our social media to thousands of filmmakers and film enthusiasts from all over the globe. The winners of each monthly edition will be nominated for our annual official selection and awards.
“Paris is a place where, for me, just walking down a street that I've never been down before is like going to a movie or something. Just wandering the city is entertainment.”
