sixteen:nine International Film Festival (SNIFF) is an annual two-day 'short-film' festival for students. It is an initiative of the students of Shri Vile Parle Kelavani Mandal's (SVKM) Usha Pravin Gandhi College of Management and will take place during the second week of January 2009. It has high expectations to live up to, as the
very first sixteen:nine International Film Festival in March 2008 attracted top celebrities like Oscar nominated

producer and director Aamir Khan. sixteen:nine International Film Festival came into being with the objective of catering to the global student community's increasing demand for something unique in the field of filmmaking. It offers this niche audience the kind of cinema it is yet to experience.

Shorter than your average short films, it is in this event where we will discover the true master of short films, someone who can pack in a hard-hitting message within a span of 60 seconds .
In this category, the participants imagination is paramount. From quirky characters to funny caricatures the animators can come up with anything that catches their fancy.
