This is where the national and international short film industry gather every year. On Friday and Saturday during the festival, Kurzfilmtage offers a wide range of educational events and networking opportunities.
Industry Lab
The Industry Lab presents a variety of informative and educational sessions as well as networking opportunities for filmmakers and industry representatives.
Writers’ Room
The Writers’ Room is an information, networking, and education platform for aspiring and professional screenwriters, filmmakers, and anyone interested in writing for the screen.
FOCAL Script Coaching
During Kurzfilmtage, FOCAL offers free coaching sessions for four selected short film projects. The sessions last 60 to 90 minutes and will be scheduled in advance with the script coaches.
Short Pitching
Kurzfilmtage invites Swiss filmmakers to pitch their ideas for short films to Swiss producers and thus meet with potential (co-)production partners. Fiction, documentary, and animation projects are eligible.
More information and registration forms will be available here in September 2023.
