      <image:title>Home - Practical Tips For Writing A Short Film Script, By Hassan Akkad - Make your character want something so badly then make it hard. No wants = no story. No obstacles = no tension. If success or failure doesn't hurt, we don't care. (Torture your hero)</image:title>
      <image:caption>A character is revealed under pressure. Who a character is shows up in what they do when things go wrong. Action matters way more than backstory or clever dialogue. Speaking of dialogue, the best dialogue is two monologues colliding. A coincidence that creates a problem for your characters is great. A coincidence that solves a problem for is cheating. Bad luck is story telling. Good luck is cheating. Plot twists should shock the readers/viewers while making perfect sense in hindsight. If it feels random or dishonest, it's not a twist. It's noise. The ending is the whole point. Everything builds toward the ending/final act. Escalation. Convergence. Consequence. A weak ending erases a strong beginning.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Between Worlds Director: Josie Charles Screenwriter: Esme Allen Shot mainly on a camcorder, this low budget but high production short tells the story of Blue as she prepares a birthday present for her beloved, Violet. The sweetness of their relationship starts to turn sour as a phone call signals what’s really going on. When we see self-filmed footage of a cute camping trip they took together, the beautiful forest filled with bluebells portrays a vast openness and vividity which contrasts to the claustrophobic and much darker interior footage we see of Blue as they begin to spiral out of control. This is a very simple and effective short that leaves you both reeling and wanting more.</image:title>

      <image:title>Home - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Brief Encounters Director: Marco De Luca Screenwriter: Adam Silver Two men meet whilst cruising, and end up spending the day together, wandering around London in an unexpected romantic encounter. Despite the sexually charged opening, the film melts into a more romantic mood that draws you close. The dewy, grainy grade and the music both contribute significantly to this, with gentle, soothing music reminiscent of a background track in a popular date spot. The camera gaze remains close and intimate, interspersed with shots of the rolling landscapes of the city. Gentleness is a repeated motif in this short, emphasised through the dialogue, colour grade and sound design, creating a perfect platform for the chemistry between the two leads to do most of the talking.</image:title>

      <image:title>Home - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Day Dreamers Director: Chandradeep Das Screenwriters: Rahul Roye, Chandradeep Das In a retirement home, two residents fall in love. Both women, their love is forbidden in this part of the world, and they’re forced to keep their relationship hidden. The two lead actors give powerful and moving performances, and it’s a rare beauty to see romance between older women portrayed on screen. Throughout the film there are small but hard-hitting insights into the culture that provides the backdrop to this heartbreaking story, with elements of joy and youth juxtaposed with the process of ageing and having to keep love under wraps. The flowers and messages that one woman sends to the other convey a soft intimacy that leaves us with the thought, “so close, yet so far.”</image:title>

      <image:title>Home - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: The Flame Of My Resistance Director-Screenwriter: Cherine Karam Set in Beirut, this poetic documentary focuses on Marc, a worker at a second-hand store who designs accessories. As he and some of his friends transform themselves with colourful clothes and shiny jewellery, Marc’s narration provides information on the life cycles of butterflies as they emerge from their chrysalis. The metaphor isn’t supposed to be subtle – the beautiful softness of the caterpillar’s transformation is how Marc sees his own journey. Interspersed with scenes in the store are dance sequences and slow, undulating imagery of various fabrics and flowers, scenes of the city and the hubbub of life in the store. This short offers a gorgeous visualisation of joy, freedom, identity and chosen family.</image:title>

      <image:caption>Collection: I Like Who I Like Director: Lisle Turner Screenwriter: Janet Etuk Shoobs is set at a house party in South London. Lisa likes both Blazer and Jada, and when a surprise guest shows up to give Lisa advice, she takes it on board at her own peril. The vibrant, bold colours in the party scene, accompanied by dimmed purple-tinged lighting, effectively capture that nostalgic noughties ‘shoobs’ vibe. The well-written externalised inner dialogue makes for a clever and witty script, and provides space to explore that specific  contrast between who we’re expected to be, and who we really are that many of us know so well.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Karma’s A B*tch! Director-Screenwriter: Vasiliki Lazaridou Set in a world where zombies are part of regular life, a driver called Andy travels across the city in a taxi with their partner Pina, a zombie secret weapon, stashed in the trunk. Their aim is to set a trap for a gang of nationalist drivers that control the streets. The colour grade really feels into the sandy aridness you’d expect in a zombie apocalypse, with clever use of light effects to portray the scenes of the zombies taking control over the city and the nationalist gang. The red tones in particular help draw out the themes of control and power that run through the film. The filmmakers do a great job of creating the world of the film, and with powerfully crafted characters, we are fully hooked and drawn in.</image:title>

      <image:title>Home - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Let Trans Kids Bloom Director: Ragini Bhasin Screenwriter: Nate Gualtieri Gabe, a trans teenager, uses the boys’ bathrooms at school to get changed for sports practice, where he encounters two self defined ‘big dogs’ of the school who proceed to pressure him to reveal information about the girls’ cross country team’s sexual conquests. The intensity Gabe experiences is brilliantly created through combination mirror shots, making it impossible to ever truly get away from the two boys; they are ever present. However, they also make him feel included, ‘one of us’, one of the boys. The more they press this point, the more we see Gabe’s resolve to not share any information start to falter. Despite the discomfort, there is also a welcome inclusiveness that leaves us feeling conflicted, no easy feat in such a short time frame.</image:title>

      <image:title>Home - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Queer Africa: New Visions Director-Screenwriter: Wapah Ezeigwe Set in Eastern Nigeria, Adaora is engaged to be married to Ejiofor. Out dress shopping together one day, she locks eyes with another woman across the shop floor. It is only later that we find out the two are lovers, with Adaora often sneaking out to meet her beloved Susanne by night. The acting is sublime, the characters’ pain at not being able to be together so clearly etched onto their faces. In their brief moments together, this pain moulds into love, joy and freedom, but it is fleeting. The close ups and lingering shots create an intimacy not only between the characters, but between the audience and the characters that makes it even harder to bear their separation.</image:title>

      <image:title>Home - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Queer and Now Director-Screenwriter: Chris Urch As Reuben prepares a birthday party for his boyfriend, he is disturbed by shouting next door. He checks on his neighbours, but doesn’t take things any further. In the meantime, having got the date wrong for the party, he and his boyfriend celebrate together. The celebrations soon turn dark when violence occurs, but it’s not the violence we’re expecting. Though we – and Reuben – have been set up to expect an explosion of some kind from the neighbours, it’s what happens in Reuben’s own home that shakes the audience’s sense of stability and perception. The colours remain dark and muted, even through the birthday celebrations, and the lead performance from Mawaan Rizwan is one of understated power.</image:title>

      <image:title>Home - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Sporty Spice Directors: Cameron Richards, Charlie Tidmas This uplifting short doc tells the story of grassroots trans football team TRUK United as they build up towards a huge match that takes place on Trans Day of Visibility. From the first moment of this film, you fall in love with the protagonists, especially young teen Emily and team founder (and midfielder) Lucy. They are down to earth, funny and bold, often cracking jokes, but also sharing their shocking, but not surprising personal experiences of transphobia. By focusing on the joy, love and community that TRUK United has nourished for its members and their loved ones, We’ll Go Down In History saliently combats the hateful narratives around trans people in sport and showcases instead what it means to come together and just be.</image:title>

      <image:title>Home - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: To Your Souls Director: Baz Sells Screenwriters: Baz Sells, Ben Jackson, Dean Atta Based on the poem by Dean Atta, this stunning animation offers a beautiful representation of Black love through – and despite – societal expectations and hardships. For our protagonists, “There are no police in paradise./There are no white people in this paradise.” More than that, though, paradise is a place where these two Black men can be in love uninterrupted by the daily racism and violence they face in the UK. Despite the lack of dialogue, the craftsmanship in the animation creates distinct personalities for each boy, and when they smile, you smile; when they cry, you cry too. The details in the facial expressions, the ripples in the water in paradise’s sea, and the pure and intimate representation of sex make this film an absolute highlight of the festival.</image:title>

      <image:title>Features - Practical Tips For Writing A Short Film Script, By Hassan Akkad - Make your character want something so badly then make it hard. No wants = no story. No obstacles = no tension. If success or failure doesn't hurt, we don't care. (Torture your hero)</image:title>
      <image:caption>A character is revealed under pressure. Who a character is shows up in what they do when things go wrong. Action matters way more than backstory or clever dialogue. Speaking of dialogue, the best dialogue is two monologues colliding. A coincidence that creates a problem for your characters is great. A coincidence that solves a problem for is cheating. Bad luck is story telling. Good luck is cheating. Plot twists should shock the readers/viewers while making perfect sense in hindsight. If it feels random or dishonest, it's not a twist. It's noise. The ending is the whole point. Everything builds toward the ending/final act. Escalation. Convergence. Consequence. A weak ending erases a strong beginning.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Features - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Between Worlds Director: Josie Charles Screenwriter: Esme Allen Shot mainly on a camcorder, this low budget but high production short tells the story of Blue as she prepares a birthday present for her beloved, Violet. The sweetness of their relationship starts to turn sour as a phone call signals what’s really going on. When we see self-filmed footage of a cute camping trip they took together, the beautiful forest filled with bluebells portrays a vast openness and vividity which contrasts to the claustrophobic and much darker interior footage we see of Blue as they begin to spiral out of control. This is a very simple and effective short that leaves you both reeling and wanting more.</image:title>

      <image:title>Features - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Brief Encounters Director: Marco De Luca Screenwriter: Adam Silver Two men meet whilst cruising, and end up spending the day together, wandering around London in an unexpected romantic encounter. Despite the sexually charged opening, the film melts into a more romantic mood that draws you close. The dewy, grainy grade and the music both contribute significantly to this, with gentle, soothing music reminiscent of a background track in a popular date spot. The camera gaze remains close and intimate, interspersed with shots of the rolling landscapes of the city. Gentleness is a repeated motif in this short, emphasised through the dialogue, colour grade and sound design, creating a perfect platform for the chemistry between the two leads to do most of the talking.</image:title>

      <image:title>Features - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Day Dreamers Director: Chandradeep Das Screenwriters: Rahul Roye, Chandradeep Das In a retirement home, two residents fall in love. Both women, their love is forbidden in this part of the world, and they’re forced to keep their relationship hidden. The two lead actors give powerful and moving performances, and it’s a rare beauty to see romance between older women portrayed on screen. Throughout the film there are small but hard-hitting insights into the culture that provides the backdrop to this heartbreaking story, with elements of joy and youth juxtaposed with the process of ageing and having to keep love under wraps. The flowers and messages that one woman sends to the other convey a soft intimacy that leaves us with the thought, “so close, yet so far.”</image:title>

      <image:title>Features - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: The Flame Of My Resistance Director-Screenwriter: Cherine Karam Set in Beirut, this poetic documentary focuses on Marc, a worker at a second-hand store who designs accessories. As he and some of his friends transform themselves with colourful clothes and shiny jewellery, Marc’s narration provides information on the life cycles of butterflies as they emerge from their chrysalis. The metaphor isn’t supposed to be subtle – the beautiful softness of the caterpillar’s transformation is how Marc sees his own journey. Interspersed with scenes in the store are dance sequences and slow, undulating imagery of various fabrics and flowers, scenes of the city and the hubbub of life in the store. This short offers a gorgeous visualisation of joy, freedom, identity and chosen family.</image:title>

      <image:caption>Collection: I Like Who I Like Director: Lisle Turner Screenwriter: Janet Etuk Shoobs is set at a house party in South London. Lisa likes both Blazer and Jada, and when a surprise guest shows up to give Lisa advice, she takes it on board at her own peril. The vibrant, bold colours in the party scene, accompanied by dimmed purple-tinged lighting, effectively capture that nostalgic noughties ‘shoobs’ vibe. The well-written externalised inner dialogue makes for a clever and witty script, and provides space to explore that specific  contrast between who we’re expected to be, and who we really are that many of us know so well.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Features - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Karma’s A B*tch! Director-Screenwriter: Vasiliki Lazaridou Set in a world where zombies are part of regular life, a driver called Andy travels across the city in a taxi with their partner Pina, a zombie secret weapon, stashed in the trunk. Their aim is to set a trap for a gang of nationalist drivers that control the streets. The colour grade really feels into the sandy aridness you’d expect in a zombie apocalypse, with clever use of light effects to portray the scenes of the zombies taking control over the city and the nationalist gang. The red tones in particular help draw out the themes of control and power that run through the film. The filmmakers do a great job of creating the world of the film, and with powerfully crafted characters, we are fully hooked and drawn in.</image:title>

      <image:title>Features - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Let Trans Kids Bloom Director: Ragini Bhasin Screenwriter: Nate Gualtieri Gabe, a trans teenager, uses the boys’ bathrooms at school to get changed for sports practice, where he encounters two self defined ‘big dogs’ of the school who proceed to pressure him to reveal information about the girls’ cross country team’s sexual conquests. The intensity Gabe experiences is brilliantly created through combination mirror shots, making it impossible to ever truly get away from the two boys; they are ever present. However, they also make him feel included, ‘one of us’, one of the boys. The more they press this point, the more we see Gabe’s resolve to not share any information start to falter. Despite the discomfort, there is also a welcome inclusiveness that leaves us feeling conflicted, no easy feat in such a short time frame.</image:title>

      <image:title>Features - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Queer Africa: New Visions Director-Screenwriter: Wapah Ezeigwe Set in Eastern Nigeria, Adaora is engaged to be married to Ejiofor. Out dress shopping together one day, she locks eyes with another woman across the shop floor. It is only later that we find out the two are lovers, with Adaora often sneaking out to meet her beloved Susanne by night. The acting is sublime, the characters’ pain at not being able to be together so clearly etched onto their faces. In their brief moments together, this pain moulds into love, joy and freedom, but it is fleeting. The close ups and lingering shots create an intimacy not only between the characters, but between the audience and the characters that makes it even harder to bear their separation.</image:title>

      <image:title>Features - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Queer and Now Director-Screenwriter: Chris Urch As Reuben prepares a birthday party for his boyfriend, he is disturbed by shouting next door. He checks on his neighbours, but doesn’t take things any further. In the meantime, having got the date wrong for the party, he and his boyfriend celebrate together. The celebrations soon turn dark when violence occurs, but it’s not the violence we’re expecting. Though we – and Reuben – have been set up to expect an explosion of some kind from the neighbours, it’s what happens in Reuben’s own home that shakes the audience’s sense of stability and perception. The colours remain dark and muted, even through the birthday celebrations, and the lead performance from Mawaan Rizwan is one of understated power.</image:title>

      <image:title>Features - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: Sporty Spice Directors: Cameron Richards, Charlie Tidmas This uplifting short doc tells the story of grassroots trans football team TRUK United as they build up towards a huge match that takes place on Trans Day of Visibility. From the first moment of this film, you fall in love with the protagonists, especially young teen Emily and team founder (and midfielder) Lucy. They are down to earth, funny and bold, often cracking jokes, but also sharing their shocking, but not surprising personal experiences of transphobia. By focusing on the joy, love and community that TRUK United has nourished for its members and their loved ones, We’ll Go Down In History saliently combats the hateful narratives around trans people in sport and showcases instead what it means to come together and just be.</image:title>

      <image:title>Features - BFI Flare Film Festival 2025 Shorts Programme Overview - Collection: To Your Souls Director: Baz Sells Screenwriters: Baz Sells, Ben Jackson, Dean Atta Based on the poem by Dean Atta, this stunning animation offers a beautiful representation of Black love through – and despite – societal expectations and hardships. For our protagonists, “There are no police in paradise./There are no white people in this paradise.” More than that, though, paradise is a place where these two Black men can be in love uninterrupted by the daily racism and violence they face in the UK. Despite the lack of dialogue, the craftsmanship in the animation creates distinct personalities for each boy, and when they smile, you smile; when they cry, you cry too. The details in the facial expressions, the ripples in the water in paradise’s sea, and the pure and intimate representation of sex make this film an absolute highlight of the festival.</image:title>
