UFO – the short film festival

UFO – the unidentified film object

UFO – that stands for an evening filled with 15 different short movies of various genres, themes, and forms of presentation.

Short, yet elaborately enacted; symbolic and significant; focused and continually surprising.
The short film represents a striking format among film genres, as it is so diversely interpreted, maintained with passion and constantly received.

Makers of short films are challenged technically as well as in their artistry – the size provokes the craftsmanship by its shortness and at the same time serves as a canvas for cinematic experimentation and creative self-realization.

Since its establishment in 2005 the UFO – short film festival serves filmmakers from Germany and Europe – regarding especially the young talents – as a platform, to present their works for the first time in Leipzig.

Being held in january, the festival always commences the Year of Cinematic Art in Leipzig.
