The Atlanta Micro Short Film Festival is back for another fast-paced, fun, and wildly creative day of storytelling. We’re all about films that say a lot in very little time. Every film is under six minutes, but the ideas, emotions, and surprises are anything but small.

This one-day event brings together an exciting mix of filmmakers and film lovers to celebrate short-form storytelling at its boldest. From dark comedies and experimental pieces to animation, documentaries, and clever micro-horror, we showcase films that make their mark and leave you thinking.

Screenings take place at Limelight theater with curated blocks throughout the day, filmmaker Q&As, and a laid-back vibe that keeps things fresh and welcoming.

New this year: We’re introducing Atlanta Immersion, a special side program focused on the intersection of AI and film. In our second theater, we’ll present a unique block of AI-generated and AI-assisted micro shorts, followed by a casual panel discussion with filmmakers working at the edge of creativity and technology.

We’ll close out the day with an after party so everyone can meet, mingle, and keep the conversations going.

If you’ve got a story that’s sharp, scary, heartfelt, or just plain unforgettable, and under five minutes, we want to see it.
