Big Short Films 2023 | Watch online 16.10 – 23.10.23
Available online from the 16th to the 23rd of October 2023
Ten award-winning Greek short films come to usher you into their unique worlds, available to watch on your own screens, with company or on your own, as loud as you want, whenever you want. Speaking in the languages of realism, allegory and poetry, the themes and ideas of these films reflect our multifaceted society, turning the lens onto femme folk, nature, heteronormative standards and stereotypes, youth, intimacy, racism, and romance.
For the fourth year in a row, the Onassis Foundation renews its collaboration with the Drama International Short Film Festival and the Athens International Film Festival to present ten award-winning short films from 2022.“Humanity must urgently confront and overcome its own limitations with conscientiousness, composure and consistency, towards the peaceful and civilized coexistence of nations.”
