The 15th Psarokokalo International Short Film Festival continues faithful to the path it has set until today and, from July 2 to 14, opens its eyes to a cinema worth discovering!! This year's Psarokokalo returns with a multitude of tributes, events, and surprises, aspiring to arouse the interest of cinephiles in Greece for another year.
In its established international competition section, which this year includes 94 selected short films from 34 countries, Psarokokalo turns its attention to new creators as well as to those familiar to the Greek public such as Efira Virginie, Niels Schneider, Joseph Wilson, Nadav Lapid. While in the national competition section, it offers a selection of new emerging talents from Greece and Cyprus and is the main program that promotes the festival around the world.
Of particular interest is the dedication to the environment and architecture, innovative, ambitious, diverse, and impressive focus on channeling constructive collective action and providing a cross-cutting analysis of politics, economics, and social justice.
