The Public Theatre will host the 27th Annual Manhattan Short Film Festival featuring a selection of the best short films from ten countries, including the USA, UK, France, and Ukraine. This year's finalists include notable titles such as The Talent, I'm Not a Robot, and Mother, showcasing the creativity and diversity of global filmmakers. A unique aspect of the festival is that the audience will vote for the Best Film and Best Actor awards, allowing viewers to engage as film critics. All finalist films will also qualify for Oscar consideration following their screening in Los Angeles.
