Go Short International Short Film Festival Nijmegen is a new annual European film festival for short films. The first edition will take place from March 18 to 22, 2009, in and around LUX in Nijmegen.
The main program will consist of a European competition divided into four categories (fiction, documentary, animation, and experimental).
In addition, there are competitions for Dutch short films and European student films, and an audience award is presented.

In addition to the main program, Go Short organizes an extensive fringe program and a Go Short Industry and Education program that overlap at many moments.
will intersect and complement. For instance, Guest of the Year Jens Jonsson (renowned Swedish short filmmaker) will not only screen his films but also engage in conversation with young makers.
There will be a program centered on surrealism, a program featuring short films by major makers, and Icelandic short films will have a special place at the festival.

To put together the finest possible program, we are seeking the best films from across Europe. Therefore, we would like to draw your attention to our call for entry, which has a deadline of January 5, 2009.
