Call for Aluta Film Festival submissions
Organisers of the Aluta Film Festival, a South African township cinema event, are calling for entries from South Africa and international filmmakers for seventh edition of the festival in 2010. Entries close on Monday, 30 November 2009, and winners will be screened at the festival in Kimberley, Northern Cape, 22-28 February 2010.
Submissions must be from filmmakers who have produced films that embrace black experiences worldwide and/or experiences of marginalised communities. Special emphasis is placed on films that explore history, social issues and highlight marginalised communities within the developing world.
The festival accepts features, documentaries and short films in the genres/sub-genres of drama, action, thriller, comedy, animation and factual. Should their film/video be selected, filmmakers must guarantee that permission from the rights holder is secured for a minimum of four screenings at the festival.
Submissions must be DVD PAL screeners with a brief filmmaker biography for viewing by the panel - no screeners will be returned. Upon viewing, all selected filmmakers will be forwarded official application details, as well as festival regulations.
