PARTNER
After collaborating with Balkan Can Kino from Athens and bi’bakino from Berlin in the previous years, International 2 Sides Short Film Festival is partnering Galerie de Jaloezie from Rotterdam in its 3rd edition.
Galerie de Jaloezie is a platform for audio-visual arts in Rotterdam, founded by Gijs van der Meer and Anne Vera Veen. The platform organizes extraordinary film screenings in extraordinary settings, a yearly 48-hour film challenge and lately a pop-up gallery for video art, where it explores the boundaries between art and film. It offers a stage to young creators of audio visual arts, but also for more established makers: anyone who dares to lose herself in the work.
INTERNATIONAL 2 SIDES SHORT FILM FESTIVAL
International 2 Sides Short Film Festival focuses on the experiences of all identities, their ways of living, their races, ethnicities, beliefs and gender. It presents unique short film productions from different cultures in the categories of documentary, fiction, animation and experimental. The festival, which creates space for contemporary independent productions that do not doubt to push the limits in terms of diversity, directorial debuts, LGBTQI+ productions and new generation experimental works in its selections, develops new ways of collective viewing and organizes alternative film screenings and events at social areas. By collaborating with a film/art initiative from a different part of the world every year, 2SSFF creates opportunities for collective thinking, research and creation in the field of short film.
*International 2 Sides Short Film Festival is supported by Spaces of Culture and conducted by Digital Film Atelier (DFA).
