Início do Festival: 27 Junho 2025      Fim do Festival: 28 Junho 2025

First ever MACA Film Festival, themed "Shorts in Shorts," encapsulates the idea of microcosms of society. Selected stories will depict narratives set in a single environment featuring a train, record store or a local wine bar - visually constricted spaces as a breeding ground of ideas and cultural discourse. It explores our collective journey through time, where memories and aspirations converge in the present, offering us a chance to find new meanings in old debates and imagine alternate paths forward.

Following a similar selection process as in the previous category, the absolute winner of the festival will be determined following the counting of all votes combined. The winners will receive a bonus package from the MACA team, an invitation to the upcoming screening event at MACA and a feature on our instagram.
