Festival Description: 

The City of Drama, in Greece. It’s the most important gathering place for the Greek filmmakers, who the last years are excelling at the international film festivals! During the DISFF44, the festival took place both in a physical and an online version. The short film competition programs (National, International, Short and Green, Animation & Student), were presented in 4 Venues: at the “Olympia” Cinema, at the newly-renovated Open-Air Cinema “Alexandros”, at the Municipal Conservatory of Drama, and at the new Drive-In Cinema. Online, the DISFF-Platform reached more than 230.0000 unique visits and in the 2020 highlight was the head-jury of the International Competition: the Polish Oscar winning director Pawel Pawlikowski. International Short Film Festival in Drama is both an Oscar-qualifying festival and  accredited as member festival of the European Film Academy’s Short Film Initiative, assuring direct nomination of the Prix EFA- Drama to European Film Academy’s Awards.
