ShortsTV moves to Play package on Telenet

February 18, 2019 08.07 Europe/London By Robert Briel

ShortsTV has renewed its linear distribution agreement with Telenet and will be part of the basic Digital TV offer and available to over 1.7m Telenet subscribers.

ShortsTV is the only 24/7 TV channel, localised in Dutch and available in HD, in the world dedicated to short films. Distributed across the US, Europe, India and Latin America, ShortsTV brings audiences short movies from around the world, including hours of original Flemish content and award-winning films.

Jesse Bergsma, EMEA President at ShortsTV said, “We are very proud of our long-lasting partnership with Telenet and are thrilled that all Telenet subscribers can now watch our great movies, including some of the best Flemish short films, on ShortsTV.”

Jeroen Bronselaer, SVP Residential Marketing at Telenet said, “We are delighted that all our Telenet TV customers will now be able to enjoy the strong movie offer of ShortsTV, the worldwide reference in short movie entertainment.”

ShortsTV is also the exclusive distributor of the annual Oscar Nominated Short Films theatrical release, which features the year’s most spectacular short films. A compilation of the 2019 live action and select animation nominees will be available to Telenet subscribers as a TVOD release from 19 February, giving Belgian audiences the opportunity to see the nominated short films ahead of the 91st Academy Awards on 24 February.
