đŹ Day 5 of CSFF 2025 â The Final Day!
Itâs the last day of the festival, and your final chance to soak up the magic of short films before heading back to reality tomorrow.
Spend your Sunday with us at Empire Bio for one more day of cinematic adventures, emotions and big ideas on the big screen â¨
đ BIG MOOD
Weâre kicking off the day with an emotional rollercoaster of shorts exploring friendship, love, and all the glorious chaos in between. Expect laughter, tears and everything that makes us beautifully human.
âď¸ BETWEEN ORDER AND CHAOS
Step into the fragile space of being human, where control meets longing and structure begins to crack. Darkly funny, tender and deeply moving, these films reveal what surfaces when systems fail and emotions take over.
đź MORE THAN OUR JOBS
We end the festival with a collection of stories about work and identity, from passion to paycheque, and everything in between. These films remind us that we are, after all, more than our jobs.
