Celebrate the Opening Weekend among the stars! Yes, some are made of wax, but the visiting filmmakers from around the world are flesh and blood. Tickets include open bar provided by Stella Artois, 42 Below Vodka and Barefoot Wines, and delicious nibbles prepared by Matchbox and Cowgirl Creamery.

DC Shorts showcases the largest audience-driven collection of short films in the USA. For our 8th year, we are showing 145 films from 23 nations – and expect hundreds of filmmakers and thousands of audience members mix, mingle and explore the world of short cinema.

DC Shorts has been named by MovieMaker Magazine us as “one of 20 festivals worth an entry fee” (three years in a row) and “one of the leading film festivals” in the country. They have also been voted by Washington City Paper readers as a top area festival!

During the film competition weekend (September 8–10), they will screen the films in 17 unique 90-minute showcases – all followed by Q&A sessions with the filmmakers.

After the competition weekend (September 11-18), they will re-screen all of the programs, plus remix films into specialty shows. The week culminates with the special “Best of DC Shorts” screenings on September 17 and 18 at the Atlas Performing Arts Center.
