Bang! Short Film Festival Is Calling It A Day
Thu 27 Nov 2014Short films are perfect. Perfect for the filmmaker wanting to showcase what they can do, perfect for the YouTube generation struggling to concentrate on anything for more than an hour, perfect for creating some of the most diverse film festivals out there. Bang! Short Film Festival started off small but, as the digital age took hold and their audiences got bigger, it grew into a beast of a festival.

We get all nostalgic and look at what the festival meant to filmmakers and audiences alike...
