Who we are
Short Sighted Cinema CIC is a registered community interest company.
We believe that British short film is an exciting art form that too often goes ignored. Our aim is to support and champion short form British cinema with screenings and events that offer great value to filmmakers and audiences alike.
As a non-profit organisation, we reinvest into our cinema exhibition events, as well as supporting filmmakers to access our submissions platform by keeping fees fair.
Based in the London Borough of Bexley, one of our key aims is to bring independent British cinema to new audiences, particularly those of working class and global majority backgrounds.
We began as a short film club and still enjoy the opportunity to share our love of British short films with new audiences. Our annual short film festival The Shortest Nights has been awarded BIFA qualifying status and is now in its 11th year.
