The coolest weekly platform for filmmakers and movie lovers. Every Tuesday | 20:00 | de Kring Shortcutz Amsterdam provides a platform for emerging talent to showcase their work, engage with their audience, and connect with the established professionals of the industry.
Every week, we screen two short films by up-and-coming directors and the work of an established Dutch director, actor or producer (our special guest). At the end of each screening, the filmmakers engage in a discussion with the audience.
