MANHATTAN SHORT Film Festival
Event Date: 27/09/2015, 03:00 pm
The annual MANHATTAN SHORT Film Festival returns to Glen Street Theatre as part of a global event
This year MANHATTAN SHORT received a record breaking 678 short film entries from 52 countries. The ten finalists hail from eight countries, with short films from Turkey and Kosovo representing their respective countries for the first time.
These short films will not only entertain a global audience but will be judged by them as well. Cinema-goers will become instant film critics as they are handed a ballot upon entry that allows them to vote for the Best Film and Best Actor. Votes will be sent through to MANHATTAN SHORT HQ with the winner announced on Monday Oct 5, at 10AM (EST).
"In our 18 years of programming MANHATTAN SHORT, this is by far the strongest show we have ever had. From the first scene to the last, these films will command every second of the audience's attention. It's anyone's guess who will win the Gold Medal,” said Founding Director Nicholas Mason.
Mason, originally from St Ives on Sydney’s North Shore, is overwhelmed by the festivals ability to bring people together. “MANHATTAN SHORT unites people in all corners of the globe, from Sydney to Mumbai, from Buenos Aires to Cairo. In times like these, cross-border events like this that contribute toward greater tolerance and understanding are needed more than ever,” he said.
