Open Screening


British Shorts and Sputnik Kino are inviting you to yet another fabulous Open Screening – Special Edition Great Britain. Open Screening means: Everyone brings a short film (in whose production you have been involved) and presents it to the audience. Ideally, it should fit the topic Great Britain and your film must not be longer than 25 minutes. The audience can directly react if they don't like what they see by showing a red card – if the majority shows the red card the screening will be stopped. After each film the filmmaker and the audience get a chance to ask questions and to discuss the film. Open Screening is a forum for filmmakers and film lovers to meet and connect in an unconventional way.
