Shorts On Tap is thrilled to host our first-ever screening at Hackney Picturehouse, marking an exciting new chapter for us in East London. We’re launching this season with HACKNEY REELS - A SELECTION OF INDIE SHORTS, a special evening showcasing 10 compelling short films from talented UK and international filmmakers. This one-off event brings together a diverse selection of stories, each crafted to captivate and inspire. The screening is split into two sections of five films each, with a 20-minute interval to refresh and reflect between sessions. Following the screenings, join us for Q&As with attending filmmakers, offering insights into their creative process. Come celebrate the art of #ShortFilm with us at Hackney Picturehouse on December 3rd. It’s a great opportunity to enjoy powerful storytelling in a vibrant setting. We look forward to seeing you there!
