Shorts Session 2018

[maxbutton id=”8″ url=”http://www.quarrytheatre.org.uk/shows/shortsessions/?_sft_show-type=film” ]

Bedford Film Festival’s Short Session 2018 is part of our commitment to supporting young and fledgling film makers in Bedfordshire and beyond. Our annual Shorts Session is a chance to see who we think will be shaking up the future of the film industry.

Each year we pick a selection of the best films sent to us, compile them into our Shorts Session, and give these film makers a chance to see their work on the big screen, and network with other film makers to see what new and innovative ideas are developing. We invite all film makers along and its great to spend time discussing their work with them after each film.

The judges’ best films from three categories are also given awards:

  • Judges’ Choice - Bedfordshire: to the film that judges felt was the best entry from film makers within Bedfordshire.
  • Judges Choice - National: to the film that judges felt was the best entry from film makers outside of Bedfordshire but sill within the UK.
  • Judges’ Choice - International: to the film that judges felt was the best entry from film makers outside of the UK.
(Please note: The ‘National’ and ‘International’ award’ may be merged into one award depending on the number of entries received and those selected by the judges for the festival.)

We are grateful to receive work from film makers all over the world and each year the quality of submissions gets better and better. We can’t wait to share them with you.

The choices for 2018 are:

Bedfordshire Based Film Makers:

  • Cells by Tom Fordham

The last living human questions both her existence and sanity after spending months confined to a small bunker.

  • The Legend of Bob Leonard by Will Kenning

After a Norman procession is routed by a gang of thugs, a captive minstrel manages to trade his life for a song…and the chance to write history.
