United Kingdom · Multiple structural red flags — exercise caution before submitting
Pause before you pay
Warning-tier means structural red flags in our data — not a confirmed scam, but submit only with eyes open.
The One Pound Super Short Film Festival is a hybrid open-call screening event in the United Kingdom, organized by third-year BA Film and Screen Studies students as part of FASE. It is notable for its low-cost entry model and its focus on super-short moving-image works of one minute or less, aiming to challenge elitist film-festival structures and widen access for new and underrepresented filmmakers. Its significance lies in its experimental, community-driven approach to short-form screening rather than in long-running prestige status.
