DC Shorts showcases the largest audience-driven collection of short films in the USA. Now in our 9th year, we expect hundreds of filmmakers and thousands of audience members mix, mingle and explore the world of short cinema.

DC Shorts is unique among film festivals, as we entries to read the feedback and scores from the judging panels — a point which impressed MovieMaker Magazine to name us as “one of 20 festivals worth an entry fee,” and “one of the leading film festivals” in the country — year after year!

For the 2011 events, we received over 1,200 film submissions and 140 screenplays from 42 nations. We showcased 145 films and 5 screenplays from 23 countries in 17 unique showcases to a combined audience of over 7,400 people.
