8 Great Shorts
 
Sunday 15th | 4.00pm | Cork Opera House | 115mins
Sublime, funny, inventive, original; a late programme of shortness and greatness. Belly ping-pong, a year-long video diary and the world’s worst football team – we are delighted to introduce this new strand of shorts to the festival - a late night gem.
