Throughout April 2017-March 2018, Random Acts Presents screens an exciting selection of short films by young artist filmmakers aged 16-24 in cinemas across England. From animation and comedy, to dance and spoken word – these bold and creative short films reflect the mosaic of contemporary life in England through the lens of its young artists.

The films

These innovative, thought-provoking films range from 90 seconds to 3 minutes in length.

The films span a range of art forms and topics – from the refugee crisis, the monotony of the job centre and the thrill of a zombie apocalypse. Without preconceptions, filmmakers are challenging norms and carving out space for a wide range of on and off-screen talent, and bold expressions of creativity.
