Easily the most eagerly anticipated event of the festival, we can’t wait to see what Shetlanders of all ages and abilities have to show on the big screen this year. The films will be no longer than four minutes and can be in any style, on any subject. Last year we had a bumper crop of live action and animated films from beginners and from the more experienced. What will you be bringing this time? Come and join us for a rambunctious celebration of local creativity! (And vote for your favourite whilst you’re there.)
Dialect Awards Shetland ForWirds have once again kindly offered prizes of £100 and £25 for the films with the most effective use of Shetland dialect. There are two age categories: 25 and under, and 26 and over. They can be awarded to any film using the dialect that is shown during Screenplay. The films will be judged by a panel and the winners will be announced at the end of the Home Made 0–4 screening. Thank you, Shetland ForWirds!

An opportunity for the audience to see some longer short films by experienced Shetland filmmakers. Following the success of Ragnar last year, Stephen Mercer is back with two delightful films about Shetland children and their crofting passions, Ian’s Hens and Growing Up With Sheep. Liz Musser has made a cracking short film about the Shetland Reel, and Screenplay ‘regular’ J.J. Jamieson has some belters up his sleeve to delight you with. Come and support your local filmmakers.
