The seminal Shorts

The 24th Minimalen Short Film Festival proudly presents a cornucopia of new expressions from Wednesday 14th to Sunday 18th of March at Nova Cinema in Trondheim, Norway.

This year's programme promotes Norwegian voices, but also embraces the fresh contributions from the world at large, via the Nordic countries and Europe. Some have already been at the Oscar's while others have only one minute to win the audience's favour.

Come close to the filmmakers in the masterclass with Rúnar Rúnarsson and get a new perspective on modern classics in this year's symposium presented by the journal Short Film Studies.

Go from premiere party to premiere party and be among the first to watch the seminal films. Afterwards, you can have a beer with the filmmakers in the Teaterbaren. Welcome to this year's film fest!
