ShortCutz | Weekly Session #327
Every session, you can watch short films straight from our Official Selection, followed by a ‘gezellige’ Q&A with the teams. The Sessions are English spoken, and the films are subtitled in English.
After each screening, we interview the team behind the film and get to know more about their process and vision.
The special guest of this session is Golden Calfwinner Mascha Halberstad. Fresh off the success of “Knor,” which bagged the Dutch Oscar for best feature film, she’s ready to wow us again. Her latest creation, ‘Fox & Hare Save the Forest,’ is set to light up cinemas after stunning at Berlinale. Let’s hear all about Mascha’s journey and what went into making this film a reality.

The world of the introverted but fiery Esra (9) has been turned upside down. Her father has become disabled after a recent motorcycle accident, and as a result, they had to move to a new place. Struggling with his limitations, Esra’s father isn’t the man she once knew. At her new school, she tells a lie that results in a lot of positive attention, but she cannot oversee the consequences. The pain, anger, and shame that boil inside of her will inevitably find their way to the surface.
