Leiden Shorts was established in 2009 as a newborn platform for short films and has since grown into one of the most important short film events in the Netherlands. We envision Leiden Shorts as an alternative creative space for national and international filmmakers to showcase their distinct voices by exploring the power of the short film medium.

By considering cinema as a tool for social change, we aim to spotlight underrepresented voices and provide space for daring narratives and unconventional forms to take shape. The upcoming edition will take place in various locations in Leiden between 6-9 June 2024.
