Short Circuit presents this eclectic programme of short experimental documentaries responding to the theme of Self Made.
From the visually poetic to thought provoking hybrid docs these films explore the intricacies of self production from film craft, identity and creativity to challenging self-made careers and otherworldly landscapes.
For our October 2025 screening we are inviting experimental documentary submissions on the theme of SELF MADE.
From DIY and the crafts of making to the lofty aspirations of digital entrepreneurs. From self attaining goals to outlandish wealth and status …. What is self made? Is success of your own making just for the changemakers, creatives or simply making things yourself.
We look forward to seeing submissions that address and question success, ‘making it’ and doing it your own way.

We look forward to seeing your submissions and listening in on your world.
