About the Very Short Film Festival

The Very Short Film Festival is a platform for diverse Australian voices to share their stories with the world. Filmmakers get creative with a short 2-5 minute film that includes a reference to the 2023 signature theme 'CHIP', for a chance to win a range of cash prizes, mentorship, all expenses paid flights and accommodation to attend this event in Tasmania.
