About

OFF – Odense International Film Festival is Denmark’s international short film festival, and with its launch in 1975, it is also the country’s oldest film festival.

OFF is an alternative film festival, born with passion and creativity; a spirit the festival has maintained and nurtured ever since. OFF supports and celebrates the short film genre without compromise, but at the same time Odense International Film Festival is a festival for the audience, which experiences massive support from the locals in the town of Odense year after year.
