SSFF & ASIA wants you to decide which of these three stories will become a short film in 2023.
The folktale tradition—from fairy tales to ghost stories—has been one of the longest-lasting forms of storytelling since humans could talk. The art of oral storytelling predates the written word and has been used to record information, teach morality, and untangle some of life’s greatest mysteries and wonders.
While storytelling has evolved, folktales still hold weight in every art form, including cinema. We have seen the resurgence of folktales in genre film, drawing inspiration from the folktale tradition to tell a new story for modern audiences.
Short Shorts Film Festival and Asia (SSFF & ASIA) wants to celebrate the style of storytelling by funding a short film that finds inspiration from a tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation, transcending every language and cultural barrier.
