10 Things I Hate about Shorts

– a hands-on approach to what programmers love

Saturday 21/9 15:00 – 16:00 Scandic Triangeln


Festivals are looking for new, innovative, touching and provocative films. That is what programmers select among the thousands of submissions they receive.

In this session we ask them what they’re not looking for – what turns them off. What will make a programmer dismiss your film as soon as the credits roll – and how can you make them keep it on their radar.

This session could improve the festival run for your next film.

Panel:

Ben Thompson, Tribeca Film Festival
Anne Gaschütz, Locarno International Film Festival
Birgitte Weinberger, Odense International Film Festival

Moderator:

Jing Haase, The Swedish Film Institute
