Signals is hosting the biggest short film festival - Future Shorts

Signals Media Arts Centre is giving you the opportunity to be part of the global community of Future Shorts. The film content presented is challenging, entertaining, stimulating and pushing the boundaries of how culture is consumed.

After the huge success of the Autumn Season Film Festival, which was screened in 42 countries and over 135 cities, Future Shorts is launching winter season from January 2013 to March 2013 featuring 7 of the best cutting-edge short films from all over the world.

The programme includes prize-winning films for every taste - everything from horror through love story  to animation.

A special highlight is the Sundance Jury Prize winner 'Fishing Without Nets' (Kenya, 2010) telling us the fascinating story of pirates in Somalia told from the Somalis' perspective.

Other featuring films are:
The colourful animation 'Marcel, King of Tervuren' (USA, 2012),

The Woodstock Film Festival Jury Prize Winner 'We're leaving' (USA, 2011),

The documentary-cum-horror film 'The S from Hell' (USA, 2010),

The surreal coming-of-age short 'Candy Girl' (UK, 2012),

The humorous love story 'Lovebirds' (Czech Republic, 2010) reflecting on the similarities between avian and human life,

and 'Seeds of the Fall' (Sweden, 2009) by the oscar nominated director Patrik Eklund.
