Short Film Submissions for 2024 GENERATION Fleadh are now open. 

GENERATION Fleadh is the younger half of the Galway Film Fleadh and takes place from October 23 – 26. 

GENERATION Fleadh consists of two shorts programmes: 

• Gearrscannáin: Dedicated to screening new Irish language short films. 

• GENERATION Shorts: Showcasing the best films created by young people and curated by young people. 

Please read the rules and regulations before submitting your film.  

If you have made a film as part of a Foróige group, youth group, school, university, film club, etc., we would especially love to hear from you.  

If you are 24+ and submitting a film, please remember if selected your film will be shown to a youth audience, so please make sure the content is suitable for this level. 

*Please note that GENERATION Fleadh is a much smaller programme than the Galway Film Fleadh programme, making this a highly competitive category.
