London Short Film Festival

Buzzing, edgy and often decadent event from start to finish.

 

Dates: 10th - 19th January 2020

 

Returning for a fourteenth year, the London Short Film Festival comes to four venues across London this January with hundreds of film screenings, each hand-picked for the occasion. Renowned for its crazy, avant-garde and challenging offerings, the festival sees around 70 events take place at the ICA, Picturehouse Central, Hackney Picturehouse, Moth Club and Hackney Attic. Films include drama and documentaries examining London life, comedy shorts and the Best UK Short Film Award shortlist. The LSFF really is an ultra buzzing, decidedly edgy and often decadent event, accompanied by training sessions, drunken bashes, live music and awards.
