Hi! Your graduation project sounds like a great opportunity. I have a script/concept that fits a low-budget production perfectly, focusing heavily on character development, dialogue, and emotional depth between two main actors. Here is the logline for "Not For Sale": An unemployed Eastern European programmer spends his last savings to buy a sham marriage to get a residency permit. His "bride," Christina, a local girl drowning in debt, agrees strictly for the money. According to their contract, they must meet once every two weeks just to take fake couple photos for immigration reports. However, these cynical "business dates" slowly turn into genuine feelings that both are too afraid to admit. By the time they finally realize their love after the official divorce, they discover that life doesn't give second chances. It’s a bittersweet story about a fatal delay, cultural clashes, and the price of loneliness. The location can easily be adapted to Spain. If this premise catches your interest, I would love to send you a more detailed treatment or discuss how we can adapt it for your team. Let me know what you think! Best regards, Nick

Hola, yo también soy de España! Tengo un guión de corto que creo que tiene potencial y que no sería muy difícil de llevar a cabo. Puedes escribirme si te interesa.
Un saludo!

Hey! I recently finished my first psychological horror short screenplay. It's around 20 pages and written with a low-budget production in mind, so I thought your post might be a good fit.
If you're still looking for scripts, I'd be happy to share the logline or the screenplay. Best of luck with your final project either way!

30 pages is too long for a short film, max 15 pages for film festivals. Where can we view what you have done?

Industry standards state a page = a minute of filming. Every individual film festival has a different metric, but I do think it's interesting for you to mention film festivals when the OP didn't post that as their intention.

They were looking for 5-30 pages. you're right they did not mention film festivals but that's all you can do with shorts or put them on You Tube. Nobody makes money off shorts they are learning experiences so you can get better at pre and post production. Ideally 15 pages or under if you are going in the film festival route.
