What is ShortFilmWeb?
ShortFilmWeb is a website showcasing and listing some of the best short films freely available to view online. There are hundreds of thousands of short films on the internet, but every film posted on ShortFilmWeb is hand-picked by our team. Films are searchable by category, by keyword, browsing the A-Z list, or somply watching a random film – see ‘How can I browse’ section below.

Aren’t all these films on YouTube anyway?
No. Some are on Vimeo, many are on YouTube, but some of our curated short films are embedded/hosted on other platforms entirely. We simply showcase the short films we like best.
ShortFilmWeb couldn’t ever hope to list every one of the free short films online out there. There are far too many to see in a lifetime and if we’re being honest, many aren’t worth seeing anyway. The calibre of the short films we showcase really matters to us. We only post what we feel are quality films, and all descriptions and reviews are written independently.
Can I submit my own short film for inclusion?
Please do! Use the contact form to send the link to your film to us, or alternatively contact us with the link via Twitter.
