DepicT! is thrilled to be part of the newly rechristened London Short Film Festival with a special DepicT! Showcase event at the ICA on Thursday 10 January at 6pm. The DepicT! All-Time Top Ten micro-movies will screen, as well as the London premiere of the DepicT! '07 shortlisted films, so if you weren't able to join us during Encounters, now's your chance to catch these super shorts on the big screen. After the films, there will be a Q&A with DepicT! filmmakers Hazel Grian (Donut, Big Career), Leigh Hodgkinson (Flighty) and Joseph Pierce (Big on Love, State of Nature).

5th LONDON SHORT FILM FESTIVAL
www.shortfilms.org.uk
Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) / Curzon Soho Cinema / Roxy Bar & Screen / Amersham Arms The Projector with Teeth returns to 4 major London venues this January, with a new identity and a new name, celebrating 5 uncompromising years of short film and punk attitude. After 4 years, the Halloween Short Film Festival now emerges as the London Short Film Festival, still proud to be the edgiest film festival in the UK, and bringing with it the best in new film and music across 10 days of screenings and multi-media mayhem. The cornerstone of the previous Festivals has always been imaginative and challenging programming, so for this year’s screenings, the Festival are pulling some special events out of the bag, alongside the best in new short films. Including 14 programmes of new short films, selected from an open submissions process, which this year has seen record entries, the 2008 festival includes everything from comedy to horror, to experimental to documentary.
The festival also offers filmmakers and industry participants an ongoing array of free industry events and networking, live music-themed film and visual events, filmmaker focuses, guest screenings and the Shooting People film pub quiz!
The 5th London Short Film Festival is sponsored by Vauxhall and the UK Film Council, plus FourDocs, Animate Projects and Clear Cut.
