Shots International Short Film Festival was launched in 2016 in Slovenj Gradec, a town in northern Slovenia, by a young and ambitious team of film, media, and tourism professionals. It screens a diverse program of short films from all over the world on three evenings at the Rotenturn courtyard open-air venue in the center of the town. The applications for eligible films are usually open from August until May.

Programme

The festival Shots took a less is more approach, meaning that it shows only around 20 to 30 short films every year from a vast selection of more than 1500 submissions coming in from all over the world. This approach ensures high quality in the program while maintaining a manageable quantity for every visitor. The program ranges from feature to documentary and animated shorts.

Accompanying programme

Interesting film guests from the European film scene are the main attraction of the accompanying program. Due to the hospitality of the team and the town, they visit the festival in large numbers and spend the entire duration of the festival in Slovenj Gradec. Concerts by local bands, local cuisine, and visits to the cultural and historical sites of the town and its surroundings are also organized.
