Calling all filmmakers! The sixteenth edition of New Zealand's Show Me Shorts Festival is set to take place at 30 cinemas nationwide (plus online in NZ) during 1-21 October 2021, and your entries are wanted!
Each year SMS programmers curate a selection of the best short films from Aotearoa and around the world, plus some of the top local music videos. They are especially looking for cinematic narrative-style films with strong audience appeal, as well as films yet to have their world or New Zealand premiere.
Show Me Shorts is both a travelling festival that screens at 30 cinema locations, and a hybrid festival, so there will also be screenings of select short films online (geo-blocked to allow only New Zealanders to watch them).
