CALL FOR ENTRY is still open for the International Competition — until August 1, 2025.

We promote and support young artists and their debut works and let them apply for free. We focus on new visual and cinematic languages in an effort to enrich and challenge both contemporary art and filmmaking. We have never drawn a line between professional filmmakers and amateurs — an approach that has brought many great names to the art world. After all, every prominent film director and artist was once a debutant, experimenting and finding their voice.
