Ljubljana International Short Film Festival

The Ljubljana International Short Film Festival (LISFF) (alternately called the Transit Film Bazaar or the Transit Short Film Festival) is both a firmly localised independent film festival held each March at Klub Gromka – and a transitory, highly unconventional entity producing film presentations, screenings and festivals all around Europe. The festival promotes non-commercial and independent fiction, documentary, experimental and animated short films and realises its programme and its international projects in a solid DIY manner. The entrance to all of the screenings is free of charge.

The festival, which took off in 2009, is involved in a network of art cinemas, cinematheques and film clubs across Europe, from Oslo to Tirana. Its partner festival, more or less also stationed in Klub Gromka, is the autumn DokuBazaar, Ljubljana Independent Documentary Film Festival.

International programme

The festival acquired its international, travelling nature in 2010, when it co-produced events like Graz Short Film Night. Later, it established the Balkan Film Bazaar vehicle, which showcased a selection of Ex-Yugoslavian short films (gathered for the Ljubljana edition) in the cities of Graz, Oslo and Helsinki.

In 2013, LISFF started country-focused film selections like "Zoom Austria", "Zoom Sweden" or "Zoom Hungary" and travelled to the cities of Tirana, Belgrade, Oslo, Budapest, Sofia, Grachanica, Prishtina, Munich, Maribor and Jerusalem. The project was broadened in 2015 with the "Zoom Short Film Night", which was also hosted in Tel Aviv, Prishtina, Tirana and Grachanica.
