SHOW ME SHORTS - 2025
NZ and International short films
99 mins, Rated M - (strong language)

Enjoy the highlights from this year’s Show Me Shorts (SMS) Film Festival. It's a selection of the most vibrant, fun and imaginative short films from NZ and around the world.

SMS is all about the connections between us. This year's films include stories about a boxing nun, an AI robot, a dedicated teacher and a Palestinian man trying to return home.

There's also some fun with an ambitious dad at a twirling competition and a maniacal ice-cream seller at the beach.
