Best Short Films On Netflix You Shouldn't Miss - Indie Shorts Mag

Netflix is a treasure trove for film aficionados. It wouldn’t even be an exaggeration to state that the audiences today are spoilt for choice. Needless to add then, that this seemingly infinite library, makes it hard to pick from its collection. And, imagine the tragedy of missing out on some epic shorts such as the Oscar-winning Two Distant Strangers?!

The problem stems from the lack of filters implemented for short films by Netflix. And, while film lovers have been asking for a length-based search option for quite some time now, Netflix hasn’t issued any official statement regarding the same. But we couldn’t let you suffer because of some algorithm. Here is a compilation of unmissable shorts that are bound to keep you rooted in your seat.

While clearly, this isn’t an exhaustive list, we assure to keep you cinephiles updated on it. Also note that these films are available in select countries only.
