Drama International Short Film Festival is Greece's leading short film festival, and the annual meeting place for filmmakers and industry professionals.
Based in Drama, Greece the festival runs a six-day schedule in September and its main venues are Municipal Conservatory and Olympia Cinema.
[1] The festival presents an annual international competition showing the best new films from Greece and around the world, as well as parallel events including interviews, book presentations, panels and networking for filmmakers and professionals.
A few years later, the festival was adopted by the Municipality of Drama and then, in the mid-eighties, by the Greek State.
Over 2,000 films are submitted each year, and the curatorial group selects around 50–60 to screen in competition during the festival.
