Shortcutz Amsterdam is back at the De Kring with the free Weekly Sessionz, the coolest way to interact with the new generation of Dutch filmmakers.
Every session, you can watch short films followed by a ‘gezellige’ Q&A with the teams. Our Sessionz are English spoken, and the films are subtitled in English.
Get ready for a great session, with 2 short films straight from our official selection. After each screening, we interview the team behind the film and get to know more about their process and vision.
The Special Guest for this session will be announced soon! Stay Tuned!

Camouflage is about domestic violence from the perspective of a thirteen-year-old boy named Deniz. However, the violence is implied in the film and not shown. Even the perpetrator, Deniz's father, is completely left out of the picture. The film shows the impact of Leroy's home situation on, among other things, his relationship with his mother, his behaviour at school and his development as a teenager.
Shortcutz Amsterdam is a platform for up-and-coming Dutch film talent. It's our mission to put the spotlight on new talent and offer them a 'shortcut' to an audience (Nationally and Internationally), knowledge, and the most exciting film professionals.
