INTERNATIONAL
2 SIDES SHORT FILM FESTIVAL
The International 2 Sides Short Film Festival (2YKFF) establishes Izmir as its constant shore and, each year, collaborates with a film initiative from a different city around the world, fostering intercultural dialogue and bridging the two sides.
In addition to presenting unique short film productions from different cultures in the categories of animation, documentary, experimental and fiction, the festival organizes capacity and network building events in the field of short film.
2YKFF strengthens the collective viewing and sharing culture by transforming social areas into screening and event venues. It advocates for the right of all individuals to participate, access and contribute to this togetherness and culture.

ACCESSIBILTY
2YKFF takes new steps in the field of accessibility every year. In past years, the festival has provided audio description options for many films in its selections, and featured events focused on accessibility in cinema in its program. For the year of 2024, the festival team continues its efforts to implement the "Accessible 2YKFF" program, which includes accessible film screenings and events.
The festival collaborates with Boğaziçi University Assistive Technology and Education Laboratory for Individuals with Visual Disabilities, and Accessible Everything in its accessibility efforts. It is also a part of the Access to Culture Platform.
