Kinemastik<\/a> is once again premiering a programme of exciting, relevant and groundbreaking short films at the International Short Film Festival, taking place on the 27th and 28th July at the Garden of Rest in Floriana.<\/p>\n

For the last fourteen years, the Maltese cultural NGO, Kinemastik, has been organising an annual short film festival as part of its year-round programme of film-related events and activities.<\/p>\n

The Kinemastik<\/a> International Short Film Festival provides an ideal platform through which resident filmmakers can forge meaningful creative and professional connections with leaders in the world of cinema, as well as share their work with local audiences and guest speakers. Over the years, the festival has also earned itself a place in the hearts of local filmgoers thanks to an intimate ambience that allows viewers to experience the full appeal of the short films selected.<\/p>\n
