10-12 October 2019


The Submission Phase has closed for the 2019 Festival.

We received submission from 34 different countries. The submissions are under review by the Selection Committee and we will announce the 2019 Official Selections around 5 September 2019.

Festival Passes are on sale now --Over 10 hours of short films, seven blocks of unique films (including the Horror-only event Friday night hosted by Mike Lombardo of Reel Splatter) + the Award Screenings (we announce the award winners as they are screened in the final block of films.)

We are hosting a few Free Events at Tellus360 prior to the festival, showcasing many of our favorites from the Past 11 years and maybe a teaser or two from this year. Join us in celebrating independent short cinema!

Thank you for checking out the Lancaster International Short Film Festival.

Much more to come.
