The British Shorts Film Festival is back again in Berlin this summer, bringing with it the most exciting, funny, strange and thrilling short films, all the way from Britain. 

What to expect at the British Shorts Films Festival this summer

The programme of the summer edition of this film festival includes a wide range of genres – drama, comedy, thriller, animation, experimental, documentaries, horror, science fiction and music video – you name it, you’ll probably find it listed on the programme! The summer programme also features awarded short films, some of the team’s favourites and highlights from the previous edition in January.

The screenings take place at the Freiluftkino Insel im Cassiopeia – an open-air theatre – so visitors can enjoy the warmth of sunny Berlin while watching their favourite short films. After all, who wants to sit in a stuffy theatre when they can enjoy the sun outside?

Attending the British Shorts summer edition

Tickets can be purchased at the website of Freiluftkino Insel im Cassiopeia. This year, for the first time, there will be two screenings (with the same programme) – on August 7 and August 14 – as seating is limited due to coronavirus regulations.
