Introduction

The Clermont-Ferrand International Short Film Festival (French: Festival international du court métrage de Clermont-Ferrand) is the biggest international film festival dedicated to short films. It is held annually in Clermont-Ferrand, France, and is the largest film festival in France in terms of audience and professional attendance, boasting over 160,000 attendees and 3,500 professionals annually.

In 1979, a Short Film Week was organized by the Clermont-Ferrand University Film Society. This event was repeated in 1980 and 1981, and was enthusiastically received. In 1982, the Festival became competitive, with a jury attributing awards to films selected from the recent French short film production. International films were shown in special programs highlighting a particular theme, genre, country or region of the world. The audience was also presented with tributes to the great short film makers of the past and present.

In 1986, the first Clermont-Ferrand Short Film Market was organized, with the intention to raise the economic profile of the short films. The market contains a video library for French and foreign television buyers, distributors and festival programmers to view the all of the films in competition, as well as the films out of competition, that were submitted for consideration.
