ATIFF: Attic Theatre Short Films Festival, 2023. [10 seconds to 20 minutes]

The inaugural Attic Theatre International Film Festival is organised by the Attic Theatre, a group of actors, filmmakers and technicians who are captivated by the medium of film.

Our aim is to encourage excellence in film-making and to present the medium of movie to our audiences through a free weekend-long event. We invite submissions from around the world.

Newcastle Emlyn serves a wide area across three counties in South West Wales – Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire.

We guarantee a live audience with our eighty-seat auditorium in a grade-2-listed historic building in the centre of town with a full-size screen. The event is free to the public.

The official selection for the festival will consist of approximately 40 short films in competition. Screenings will be divided into sessions of 4 to 6 short films. Although award categories have been established, there will be no separation of genre into specific screening sessions.

Awards categories are: 

Drama 
Best Made in Wales 
Experimental 
Animation 
Cinematography 
Documentary 
Black & White 
Music 
Environmentalist 
ATiFF award
