The FAME Shorts Film Festival is an event that celebrates the diverse narratives of Africa and its diaspora through short films, including dramas, comedies, and documentaries. Held in Cape Town, South Africa, often at the Labia Theatre, it is a component of FAME Week Africa, an annual gathering for the entertainment industry. The festival showcases films that explore themes such as cultural heritage, modern life, diasporic identity, historical events, and social-political issues. It also offers content sessions, workshops, and masterclasses for filmmakers.
