Founded in 2010 as a modern take on ancient open-air theaters, the Outbox International Short Film Festival brings two years of film festival experience to an outdoor event open to anyone who would like to attend. Without walls or admission fees acting as boundaries, a dynamic audience of all ages and backgrounds can discover cinema’s most vibrant art form: the short film.
Similarly, Outbox has done away with limitations on filmmakers. The non-competitive festival accepts film submissions from all countries and genres. Love story or adventure, by amateur or professional, in Lebanese or Chinese, it doesn’t matter, as long as it is a short film. There are no applicant fees and entrants are chosen solely for their talent.
With a purely cultural event that’s free in every sense, we are celebrating cinema outside the box!
