Film Movement founded National Short Film Day in 2019 and celebrated its first observance on December 28th, 2019. They created the day to celebrate the impact of the short film and to commemorate its long and enduring history.
In 2019, Film Movement registered the observance with National Day Calendar®, and the Registrar at National Day Calendar proclaimed the day to be observed on December 28th, annually.
Each year on that day, Film Movement will stream 10 short films for free on their exclusive streaming service, Film Movement Plus (www.filmmovementplus.com), and offer new subscribers exclusive membership discounts.
