Octopus Shorts – International Short Film Competition.

As part of the 6th. edition of the Octopus Film Festival, we decided to present the audience with another dimension of genre cinema, this time expressed through the length of the form. Octopus Shorts, the International Short Film Competition, has joined the program. This year Octopus Shorts is back with its second edition!

In a short film, we are looking for exactly the same things as in feature-length cinema – creativity, creative courage, madness and a unique combination of genre inspirations with an original idea.

The best productions will be presented during the 8th. edition of Octopus between August 5 and 10 and judged by a specially selected jury, and the winner will win not only respect and eternal glory, but also a financial prize.

The official Octopus Short 2025 selection is coming soon!

He accepts submissions exclusively through the FilmFreeway website: https://filmfreeway.com/OctopusFilmFestival.
