Big Teeth Small Shorts Film Fest – Summer 2025 Show

Big Teeth Small Shorts Film Festival is back with a one-of-a-kind event showcasing more than 40 short films, each under five minutes long, from a mix of global talent and fresh new voices.

Since its inception, Big Teeth Small Shorts has championed the art of micro-filmmaking, giving these small but mighty stories a platform to shine. By keeping each film under five minutes, the festival delivers bold, unforgettable storytelling that highlights the power of brevity in artistry.

“You get the full film festival experience in under 2 hours”, said Gregg Jaffe, Festival Founder and Director. “The beauty of this format is that you will 100% see something different from anything you’ve seen before. You might be laughing hysterically one moment and deeply moved the next—it’s a whirlwind of originality that stays with you long after the credits roll.”

“At its core, this festival honors filmmakers who pour their artistry into these micro-masterpieces and the local audiences who embrace them,” said Keriann Kwalik, Co-Director and Producer. “Facets provides the perfect space for this connection to thrive—an intimate, authentic venue where film and community truly intersect.”
