A glance at this year’s competitions tells you that gender is a major theme among filmmakers. Many films from Scandinavia, as well as works from countries with more conservative attitudes, such as Brazil or Ireland, are exploring the subject, whether as sexual self-determination, gender reassignments, or same-sex marriages.

Filmmakers Steve Bache, Simone Jaikiriuma Paetau, and Erica Scoggins talk about their experience during production, why they regard the subject so important, and how such topics are accepted in their country of origin.

The panel discussion is produced by Filmfest Dresden and co-hosted by BE SHORT NOW!, an initiative from the Talents and Short Film Market. With the kind support of the Visegrad Fund, German-Czech Future Fund, and Landesdirektion Sachsen.

Short films are key to cinematic innovation. Because of their brevity, they allow filmmakers to react to the world around them more instinctively and showcase a stunning range of artistic expressions. As a magazine dedicated to short films, Talking Shorts aims to create a wider discourse about this often-overlooked art form.

We strive to produce universally readable content that can inspire, cultivate, and educate a broad range of audiences, from students and scholars to non-cinephile readers, in an attempt to connect filmmakers, audiences, festival organisers, and a young generation of film lovers who might not yet know what short films are or can do.

Since 2023, Talking Shorts is the official outlet of The European Network for Film Discourse (The END), which consists of 8 unique and diverse European film festivals and is funded by the Creative Europe MEDIA Programme of the European Union. Our work and publications are closely connected to the (European) film festival landscape.
