Humour, dance and the unexpected define Shorts Alternatives.

• For the first (and last?!) time, Solaris Apollo cinema allows well-behaved dogs to join us at the movies. "Dog Cinema" screens four animated shorts dedicated to dogs and their humans.
• In the "Let There Be Dance!" collection selected by performance artist Arolin Raudva, both the physical and ghostly begin to dance.
• Simultaneously thoughtful and funny, Queer Joys tells stories through drawn lines and music. What would you do if you heard the soundtrack written to your life?
• Date idea: the sensual "Late Night Love" and the fantastical "Late Night Sci-Fi" will provide topics of conversation until the next morning.
• The Shorts food pyramid would not be complete with coffee-black humor and the healingly absurd in "Black Nights Comedy" and "Vitamins".

The festival is presented by Elisa and Metropol Spa Hotel.
