A bite-sized film is all it takes to tell a powerful story in this pandemic era.
The G-Short film festival will show viewers at home how a good story can be told in 90 seconds.
As part of the virtual George Town Festival 2021 (GTF) programme, the G-Short fest is streaming for free until July 16 via digital platform CloudTheatre.
Themed Reimagine: A New Way Of Seeing, G-Short was conceived to encourage local and international film communities to create short-form and original films and tell stories in new and original ways. It features 30 finalists from Malaysia, Iran, Spain, Indonesia, Brazil, France, Poland, India, Singapore and the United States.
Malaysians have proven time and time again that they are worthy of international success in Cannes.

buffs connoisseurs are anticipating a fresh breath of film talent across the globe.
