FILMFEST DRESDEN has selected over 300 short films from around the world for its 27th edition. This year the short film festival has chosen 71 films for their international and national competition, all in the hunt for one of the coveted Golden Horsemen. As FilmFestivalLife’s exclusive submission partner, all the selected films were submitted through the platform and are members of the FFL family. There are some well-known films in the competition, such as the animation A SINGLE LIFE by the Job, Joris & Marieke combo as well as Una Gunjak’s THE CHICKEN.
‘We are particularly proud of our festival trailer by Susann Maria Hempel,’ says festival director Katrin Küchler. After winning Dresden’s Golden Horseman in 2014, Hempel’s short film SEVEN TIMES A DAY WE BEMOAN OUR LOT AND AT NIGHT WE GET UP TO AVOID DREAMING has enjoyed a successful – and still continuing – festival run and has won accolades several times, including the gold prize of the German Short Film Award. This year, the trailer of the 27th FILMFEST DRESDEN bears her signature.
Find below the full list of FFL filmmakers who are in competition at this years FILMFEST DRESDEN. Congrats to all!
