London is the Mother City of Short & Sweet.

Short & Sweet launched in London on 8 May 2006 at Cafe 1001, Brick Lane, E1, and ran every Monday night for 5 and a half years. Each and every week a different selection of the finest short films, music videos and short animations from around the globe were screened: Old films and new films, from established directors to film makers completely undiscovered.

Short & Sweet was always FREE to attend and saw over 200 people every night without fail.

This is where, founder Julia Stephenson, really saw the power of short film!

This is a medium that can change opinions, create conversation and ultimately bring people together.

over 2 days.

2009 – Short & Sweet teamed up with Creatives Against Poverty and took Short &

Sweet to Mumbai. This proved to us that short film is universal.
