Anishort Festival
Emerging or unverified festival
Anishort is an international festival of **short animated films** based in Czechia and presented in selected European cities. It is notable for its highly selective competition format, screening only a small number of top entries each year from a very large global submission pool, with films often recognized at other international festivals. Its significance in the festival circuit comes from its role as a showcase for award-winning and emerging animated shorts, helping promote them to wider audiences and industry viewers.
