In 2023, Diako Art had the honor of representing two short films at the prestigious Clermont-Ferrand International Short Film Festival. These films, Without Anyone and Fa Death, were selected to participate in the Short Film Market, a space dedicated to cinema professionals. This festival, one of the most important in the world dedicated to short films, offers unique visibility to the selected works and serves as a key platform for emerging filmmakers.
Without Anyone - Directed by Amirali Radi
Without Anyone explores poignant and difficult themes, highlighting social and human realities that are often ignored.

Fa Death - Directed by Ali Vilan
Fa Death explores the moral dilemma and weight of life's choices.
