The perspectives and approaches that are elevating short-form storytelling from around the world
As the chaos and heaviness of the world crisscross our circuits, filmmakers process our collective urgency by way of metaphor and poetics, using the short form to provide much needed grace. Difficult subjects are padded by recurring themes of kinship, faith, and the body, as we grasp for solidarity and resistance. The cozy compositions found in this year’s Short Forum offer a humble embrace through which to recharge our spirit.
