Short films

Comedy Shorts is a choice selection of humorous short films - all of which were part of compilations shown at the Leuven International Short Film Festival in recent years. Ten gems, from all corners of the world, in the most diverse of styles: from deadpan absurdity over laugh-out-loud hilarious to cute feel good films, from super short gags to miniature feature films. And, as always, this Selected Shorts release also contains several internationally awarded productions..
