Arizona Short Film Festival

We are a dedicated team of filmmakers and cinephiles wishing to create a forum for quality short-length cinematic works from all around the world. Short-form filmmaking is an often sidelined art form. Delivering concise and meaningful storytelling in a small package requires creativity and determination. These are also our guiding principles. We wish to celebrate creativity and determination in short-length filmmaking. So send us your ambitious and original short projects and let us help you reach an even wider audience. Join us at the renowned Pollack Tempe Cinema for an evening of short but memorable cinematic experiences. Pollack Tempe Cinema has historically been a family-oriented venue and it is their welcoming and friendly atmosphere that has made us eager to partner up with them in our celebration of high-quality short films. For one night, Pollack Tempe will be home to ambitious short works from all around the world. 🌵🌵🌵 Arizona Short Film Festival is run in association with Close:Up, a collection of international film festivals supporting indie filmmaking. By establishing a working network among filmmakers, producers and marketing professionals, we share one common goal: to forge productive and lasting relationships between independent filmmakers and audiences.
