A place for short film fans to come together to share, watch & love short film

What Shortly Is All About
Shortly is where great short films find their audience.
We’re the easiest place to discover exceptional short cinema. Too many brilliant shorts disappear into obscurity – we’re here to change that.
Shortly is a video-on-demand platform built for the short film community. Filmmakers submit for free, viewers discover curated high-quality entertainment. We make short films easy to find, easy to watch, and impossible to ignore.
Short film is the medium of our time. We’re rescuing it from festival circuits and forgotten corners of the internet, giving filmmakers the right to monetize their art and challenging Hollywood’s creative limitations.
Shortly is a rebellious global service bringing shorts from the fringe to center stage. Be constantly inspired by content from the best, brightest, newest, and bravest storytellers of our generation.
Love art. Tell stories. Be a rebel. For the love of film.
WHO WE ARE
We’re the film obsessives who got tired of waiting.
Picture this: You’re a producer, desperately hunting for the perfect short film. You’re clicking through endless rabbit holes, scrolling past cat videos and cooking tutorials, praying you’ll stumble across that one brilliant piece hiding in the digital wilderness.
That was Eva Thunell’s breaking point.
“I needed a Netflix for short films,” Eva recalls. “One platform. All the best shorts. Zero treasure hunting required.” When she looked around, she found… nothing. Just scattered fragments across a dozen different sites, buried under algorithmic chaos.
So Eva did what rebels do – she built the solution herself.
Now we’re a global crew of film fanatics, scattered across continents but united by one obsession: making sure no great short film ever gets lost again. We’re the people who pause movies to debate cinematography. Who discover directors before they’re famous. Who believe a 10-minute masterpiece can change your entire perspective.
We didn’t just build a platform. We built a movement.
