The Cube is proud to be screening a BEST OF selection of films from the 56th International Short Film Festival Oberhausen.

In the course of more than five decades, the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen has become one of the world's most respected film events - a place where filmmakers and artists ranging from Roman Polanski to Cate Shortland, from George Lucas to Pipilotti Rist have presented their first films.


Tonight’s programme will show five award-winning and outstanding shorts, ranging in genre from documentary, experimental film, to comedy. And more delights in the bar - short songs and irreverent covers musing about love, drugs and lost tents by Pip Taylor.
