Welcome to the new international short film festival “Heide Filmfestival”.
Once a year, a cinema event takes place that brings the world of short films together in the unique atmosphere on the edge of the Lüneburg Heath.
Our festival takes place at the Movieplexx Kino Buchholz and consists of several components:
We invite young filmmakers from all over the world to submit their contributions to our festival. An online evaluation will take place every three months, in which the resulting winners will be listed on our website and presented on social media. In addition, the big annual finale takes place every year in December.
Here, all four winning films from each month will be shown in front of a live audience and awarded.
Our jury, consisting of experienced actors, directors and authors, analyzes all submissions and selects the best short films for screening in our festival's competition program.
The annual winner receives prize money of €500 and the trailer of the winning film is also shown in the cinema for four weeks before each main screening.
This gives young filmmakers a great opportunity to present their film to a wide audience. Additionally, you can discuss films and meet other festival participants at networking events.
Our festival will be a unique cinema event that brings together filmmakers and film lovers from all over the world. Be there and discover the world of short films in all its glory! Our goal is to support the next generation and help them grow their audience and capture the attention of viewers.
We invite you to take part in our festival. Please submit your entries exclusively via Festhome and showcase your talent to the world.
We look forward to your submissions!
Your team from the Heide Film Festival.
