36th International Short Film Festival Berlin 2020
11 November - 13 December 2020

International Competition

Clever and defiant, the filmmakers take their place on the international stage to fulfil their mission: to explore the cinematic frontier, to dig up the worn-out paths of narrative and form, to till the tired soil so that a new bloom may appear.
