Short Sharp Shock (German: Kurz und schmerzlos) is a 1998 film directed by Turkish-German director Fatih Akın.

The film, which according to Rekin Teksoy, writing in Turkish Cinema, "focuses on the identity crises faced by German youth from various ethnic backgrounds,"[1] was the feature debut of the German-born director of Turkish descent and is said to have "represented a new German-Turkish cinema."[2]
