MANHATTAN SHORT is designed to introduce filmmakers with their short film to their future audience. A large number of "Art House" Cinemas in the United States takes part in this event each year. These are the cinemas where these filmmakers' future feature films are likely to be shown. MANHATTAN SHORT aims to connect you the filmmaker with that audience. So, Filmmakers....you provide the films and we'll take care of the introductions.
