We'll watch 10 short films along with 500 venues across the globe. Each film qualifies for a short film Oscar nomination at the 2023 Academy Awards. You can vote for best short and best actor.
Global winners will be announced on October 3.
Upon entry at all participating venues, festival attendees are handed a Voting Card and an Official Program and asked to vote for the ONE Film and Actor they feel should win. Votes are tallied by each host venue then emailed to our NYC headquarters.
MANHATTAN SHORT FILMS HAVE BEEN TO THE OSCARS BEFORE! Many past Finalists from MANHATTAN SHORT have been nominated for an Oscar (The Present and White Eye from 2020, to name just two). In the last three years at least one film from the MANHATTAN SHORT's Oscar Qualifying Screenings has gone on to be nominated for an Oscar.
