Along with the competition for the gold and the parade of stars on the red carpet of the Palais des Festivals Palme, every year, the Cannes Film Festival welcomes the Film Market in the basement of the "bunker" (the nickname sometimes given to the Palais des Festivals) which brings together film professionals, producers, distributors, programmers, buyers / sellers of movies, agents and more.

The Short Film Corner is located beside the Marche Du Film. It is the most buzzing area, and a hub of activities related to the indie short film makers. It provides the filmmakers an amazing platform of opportunity to experience a film festival line none other.

To publicize their shorts, the filmmakers can use several means of promotion, which includes posting on the boards provided for this purpose. This guerilla film marketing tactic leaves the Festival with a huge patchwork of flyers and documents of all kinds on some walls of the Short Film Corner . Short filmmakers also select to work with independent publicity and public relations agencies which provide various - Publicity, Promotion, Social Media services during the Cannes Film Festival .

The short film corner participants can also register to screen their short. This allows the short to be referenced in the catalog of short films, which is widely distributed to festival goers. This catalog is also available online in the Digital Film Library .

There are individual booths available to view the shorts available in the Digital Film Library at the Short Film Corner . The viewing booths are equipped with a computer and a headset and are open to an accredited badge holder. The viewer can use their festival credentials to access the short film catalog and watch the shorts.

However, the inclusion of a short film in the Short Film Corner is not related to the Cinéfondation selection and Official Selection for the short film Palme d'or.
