BEST OF AZYL SK
Treat yourself to a feast of filmic bite-sized gems. The AZYL SHORTS short film festival brings a one-hour “best of” showcase to Pohoda, featuring 1-minute and 5-minute films and music videos from around the globe, all submitted to its international competition. The selection was curated by an international jury of film professionals, who chose from among hundreds of short films. The resulting programme is a diverse mix of genres and styles, offering audiences an extraordinary audiovisual experience.
The films have arrived from all over the world, selected first by the AZYL team jury and then by the festival’s international jury. The screening block is truly diverse: comedies, documentaries, dramas, animations, experiments, stop-motion, pixilations, live-action, and of course, music videos. Audiences will laugh, reflect, and at times, feel a touch of sadness. That’s the magic of short films — in just one hour, you'll experience a rich spectrum of emotions.
