ATX Short Film Showcase

Grab your popcorn and get comfy—ATX Short Film Showcase is Austin’s monthly love letter to indie cinema, and it’s taking over the big screen on Monday, June 8th, 2026 at 8:00 pm.

This isn’t your average movie night. Each showcase features a handpicked lineup of short films created by local and regional filmmakers, spanning everything from laugh-out-loud comedies and mind-bending sci-fi to intimate dramas and clever animated pieces. Every screening is different, so even regulars get something totally fresh each month.

What really sets ATX Short Film Showcase apart is the community vibe. You’re not just watching films—you’re sharing the room with the artists who made them. After the credits roll, stick around for filmmaker Q&As where you can hear behind-the-scenes stories, ask questions about the creative process, and maybe even discover your new favorite director before they blow up.
