The Makers’ Film Festival (MFF) is an international short film festival with a focus on craft; makers, making and materials. The MFF23 is an international short film festival dedicated to craft on the big screen. This year’s program is jam-packed with 17 short films selected from Mallorca, Morocco, Kazakhstan, Singapore, India, Australia and New Zealand.

The entire MFF23 program is only 90 minutes long, screened in two parts with an interval, and films range in duration from one to ten minutes.

The film-making and story-telling approaches are as varied as the craft disciplines presented. Interviews, documentaries, and stop motion animations uncover traditions, skills, and consequences in a glorious survey of making – furniture, public art, textiles, baskets, ceramics, glass, jewellery, and more.

Focusing on diversity of approach in both craft and film-making to illustrate (and tell the stories of) the breadth and wonder of craft practices from around the world and across artistic disciplines.
