Paphos International Film Festival - call for short films

The Paphos International Film Festival (PIFF) in Cyprus welcomes submissions of short films, in both the narrative and documentary categories. Films can be up to 20 minutes in length, with a special category for students and a 2018 thematic call for short 'Mockumentaries'.

PIFF categories include films up to 20 minutes from Cypriot and International filmmakers, student films up to 15 minutes (both Cypriot and international) and every year we have a special category dealing with a specific issue.

PIFF entries may be submitted via FilmFreeway.com, which provide cost-saving, paperless submission to film festivals around the world.

The latest deadline for all entries will be the 21st of May 2018.

The selection process will take place and the accepted films will be notified in the beginning of June 2018.
