While feature films tell an event, a twist and a climax in ninety minutes, a short must do the same in under thirty minutes. With impressive storytelling, a short film may create the same effect as a feature film, leaving the audience in awe and wanting more when the credits start to roll.

Each year at the Kaohsiung Film Festival (KFF), international shorts compete, and those that stand out prove to excel in its storytelling. From 2022 to 2023, TFAI selects 12 winning shorts created by directors from across the globe based on their personal observation and opinions on various issues. Through them we get to explore the world, experience its sensations, and take away memories worth beyond thirty minutes.
