About this event
This film festival aims to nurture filmmakers from local regions by soliciting short films from across Japan under the theme of "Your Town." Short films ranging from 5 to 25 minutes will be screened, with both live-action and AI categories established. Entry is free. The organizer, YOLO, previously held independent film screenings in Kumamoto that drew large audiences. The festival aims to provide a continuous venue for creators active in Kumamoto and Kyushu to showcase their works. In addition to film screenings, cross-talk sessions between directors and an award ceremony are planned, making it a valuable opportunity for film fans and creators. It is a heartwarming event connecting town memories, scenery, and people's stories through cinema.
