SeasonBelfast Film Festival

Belfast Film Festival is proud to support the medium of short film, and this annual competition is made up of early-to-mid career and established filmmakers from the island of Ireland.

AMŒBA - Ian Fallon - 16 mins

A splintered tale about Levi, a young queer man who has recently survived a brain parasite, and Roan, Levi’s crush who may or may not have kissed him last night. Compelling, provocative and pulsing with energy, this short is a kaleidoscopic and self-destructive paean to unrequited love. 

Mildew - Sydney A.M. - 11 mins

There’s a ghost in the house. Or is it just a creeping feeling? ‘Elise’ tries to come to terms with a lingering malevolent vibe they can’t escape. Mildew captures a sense of dysphoria rendered through aches in the bones and cracks in the wall. Haunting and unsettling, this is a sensory experience that you can’t put your finger on. 

Farmers!? - Freddie Leyden - 15 mins

The death of a farmer brings about unexpected catharses in the Irish countryside. The collective harmony of repressed emotions explodes into a beautiful mass of heaving bodies, ceremonial dance and primal screams. This film is a hilariously surreal but richly observed glance into the inner life of culchies.
