Release short films! During the Short Rave program, shorts films will move from the conventional cinema halls to Closer, turning the screening into a mini-party where music becomes the star of the picture. No seats, only you and the dance floor: you can dance, sit by the bar or lie directly on the floor. In a nutshell, everything above restraint is permitted!
