There is something about the TiSFF that sets it apart from all other short film festivals:
it wears its importance very lightly.
It packs its superb relevance, political and affective nowness, inventiveness and risk-taking radical programming in the softest tones.
It often feels like a chocolate box where every single chocolate is a welcome surprise – even the ones that are bitter, full of unknown flavours, experimenting with your visual and emotional tastebuds.
This way of serving the most important political (widely understood) issues of our time in the lightest of ways means that we become the most receptive audience, ready to be surprised again and again with every film.
