'In Short, Europe' film festival

A celebration of diversity, inclusion, and access from across Europe.

The 7th edition of In Short, Europe, is taking place on 7–8 November 2025 at Regent Street Cinema.

Now a much-anticipated celebration of European short filmmaking, the festival continues to grow with each edition. This year’s theme, Opening Doors, brings together 19 films that embrace diversity, inclusion, and access, inviting audiences to journey across the continent from Romania to Scotland, with stories from the Faroe Islands, Flanders, Finland, and beyond.

Curated by Lillian Crawford, the programme unfolds across three strands— Sharing Memories, Breaking Boundaries, and Challenging Perspectives — each offering a distinct lens on European cinema today.

The programme will feature What My Mother Calls Me by Wille Hyvönen. The film will be shown on Saturday 8 November at 5pm as part of Strand 2.

The festival is organised by EUNIC London, in partnership with the EU Delegation to the UK, Regent Street Cinema, and the Westminster School of Media and Communication at the University of Westminster, and EUNIC London members, including the Finnish Institute in the UK and Ireland.
