On opening night we want to remind you what InShort Film Festival is all about! Opening with films that express individuality, creativity and spirits that can’t be tamed or dampened: films about rebels, wonderers, and renegades. Towards the end of the night we’ve got some of the most powerful new global shorts, with narratives that grapple with modern issues of technology (and technophobia!), censorship and rebellion, and modern relationships and identities. Let’s start these conversations.

InShortFF 2017 Opening Night is organised in association with Juju's Bar & Stage.
