The Independent Mzansi Short Film Festival (IMSFF) 2015 will take place over four-days at the ASBOS Theatre in the Karoo Caf and celebrate the short film genre in South Africa. IMSFFs mission is to present quality short films from around South Africa as well as support, recognise and honour filmmakers creating films under 30 minutes. This year, IMSFF will have 18 award categories and winners will be chosen by a panel of distinguished jurors.

Serving as South Africa s only dedicated short film festival, the IMSFF was founded to showcase contemporary short film making, and aims to exhibit the most captivating and innovative short content. In the process, IMSFF hopes to build an audience for short film and help give aspiring filmmakers a foot in the door of a rapidly growing industry. The short films will be organised thematically, in hopes of representing the full range of the human experience as reflected by the chosen filmmakers.
