Escapism has invariably constituted the essence of cinema, as the medium par excellence that provides audiences with images and sounds of a utopian feel, of hope.\nThe second edition of In Short Europe embraces the theme ESCAPE, offering our audience an online collection of short films that negotiate the concept through their form, themes and style. Through a variety of genres and styles, fifteen shorts from all over Europe feature characters and images that appear and disappear, following physical or mental journeys, reaching points of arrival or points of departure, always on the move, seeking an escape that may or may not come.\nText by Marios Psaras, Cultural Counsellor Cyprus High Commission\nRegister to attend HERE.
