The selected projects come from Estonia, Montenegro, Slovenia, Cyprus, Serbia, Hungary and Malta, among others. The main part of the event is the pitching forum, which will be held on 18 June 2026 at Kaptol Cinema Boutique.

“We are often asked why we put so much effort into a single event dedicated to short film. The answer is simple - every great filmmaking career has to begin somewhere. More often than not, it begins in safe and inclusive spaces like this one - where a filmmaker says their idea out loud for the first time, where someone truly listens, and where they are met with support rather than a verdict. That is why, for me, Let’s Pitch Some Shorts! has never been merely a training platform, but a safe and inclusive space for the exchange of diverse perspectives, authentic voices and bold filmmaking. A space that fosters cultural exchange, co-production and collaboration - where talents grow and develop, and ideas cross borders”, Martina Petrović Head of Creative Europe MEDIA Desk Croatia and Organiser of the event said in a statement.

Let’s Pitch Some Shorts! is organised by the Creative Europe - MEDIA Desks of Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Malta, Montenegro, Serbia and Slovenia, in collaboration with several national film and cultural institutions.
