The 2018 Miami Short Film Festival
William Vela launched the Miami Short Film Festival in 2002, and it’s grown in scale and profile ever since. This year’s festival, the 17thedition, will be bringing its big-screen pleasures to audiences this November 8th through the 11th. The venues include SoundScape Park at the New World Center, Cinéopolis Coconut Grove, and Miami Beach Cinematheque (which happens to be just a strollable few blocks south of Miami Della Pescheria).
The festival’s films, all of them 20 minutes or less in length, hail from farflung corners of the globe and cover a wide range of subject matter and themes, the primary focus being on up-and-coming independent filmmakers. Awards range from Best Animation, Best Documentary, and Best Foreign Film to Best Miami’s Local Production and (naturally) Best of Fest.
