• The 7th Asiana International Short Film Festival (AISFF2009) is the one and only international competitive short film festival in Korea. AISFF, searching a new territory and exit for short film, is the place where all the shorts from the world are coming across, communicating and of course fairly competing. Amazingly with its short period of time, 1,381 films from 72 countries were competed last year, which has been showing an infinite potentiality of AISFF and its new current on short film world in near future.  
• ‘In the Air Program’, a unique festival program of AISFF shows the selected films from International Competition to around 3 million international passengers at the Asiana Airlines after the festival in the theater and it contributes to create a new kind of short film market by providing license fees for this special in-flight screening apart from the festival awards. AISFF will then provide a great opportunity to short filmmakers as an alternative arena going beyond their local and national boundaries, for greater international audience awareness.   
• AISFF will be the best place to see the newest trend of world cinema through eyes of short films, the future of cinema and the cinematic variety and cultural diversity. AISFF is looking forward to seeing your great work of art as well as your passion for short films.
