Short films have an extraordinary power to captivate and leave a lasting impact on viewers. They are a medium for filmmakers to showcase their unique perspectives, experiment with storytelling techniques, and convey powerful messages within a limited timeframe. CinemaSHORT by CinemaWorld recognizes the significance of short films and aims to celebrate and promote the artistry and creativity behind these captivating cinematic gems through this year’s inaugural CinemaSHORT Asian ShortFilm Competition.
