website. You are free to use this service or not, it’s

| a
new kind of film festival: |
The bottom
line is that we want to provide a new and more suitable venue
for short films. While a any other festival will screen your
film in a one-time/one-night screening where most likely your
crew, cast, friends and family will make up 90% of the audience,
box[ur]shorts Film Festival aims to give you maximum exposure
at multiple locations where a new audience can enjoy your magic. Send
us your films... We can’t wait to work with you! |
