Aesthetica & Film

Inside each of issue of Aesthetica Magazine, we report on the latest independent theatrical and DVD releases, as well as focusing on topics in the film world such as issues around funding, festivals and events. The magazine also works in close partnership with many British and international film festivals, and has a strong presence in the film world. In 2010, the magazine launched the Aesthetica Short Film Competition and received an overwhelming response from filmmakers in 37 countries. The finalists were showcased on the Aesthetica Short Film DVD (December 2010), and laid the foundations for the inaugural Aesthetica Short Film Festival (ASFF), which launched to great acclaim in November 2011.
ASFF continues the drive to bring films of excellence to a wider audience.
