EAS 2020:

Unlike most EAS films, 2020 was an all-too-familiar story: due to COVID-19 and concerns over public health, EuroAsia Shorts was put on hold. All of our partner organizations, representing 11 countries in total, regret that we were unable to share with you the entertainment, education, and enlightenment that makes EuroAsia Shorts so special every year. While alternative formats were considered, we opted to resume in 2021 in full force. EAS wishes to thank all of our loyal supporters, friends, and patrons, and to assure everyone that the festival will return in person when the time is right, hopefully sooner than later. Please stay safe and stay tuned! For updates by email when EAS returns, join the events e-mailing lists of any (or all!) of our partner organizations via the links below, and be sure to follow EAS on Facebook.

​About the Festival​

​​​​​​

Now in its 15th year (2021), EuroAsia Shorts (originally the Asian-European Short Film Showcase) remains a collaboration between a small group of Washington, D.C. embassies and cultural centers. Since 2006, the festival has presented more than 280 short films, including many award-winning shorts making their U.S. debut. Each year a broad variety of films and styles are presented, connected by a single theme. With post-film cultural Q&A’s and discussions with experts each night, EuroAsia Shorts offers an international cinematic dialogue that is uniquely Washingtonian.

​

The festival expanded from 9 to 11 partner organizations in 2019, now representing an equal number of countries. Check out the links below for more on each partner organization and our many cultural programs beyond EAS. The festival was on hiatus in 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic, and returns in 2021 in an online streaming format.
