Film Festival open calls.

By Posted in - News on February 23rd, 2015

As in this period a few festivals that can be of interest to anthropological filmmakers are open for submissions, we thought we would assemble the links to the submission information on a single page, ordered according to their deadline:

 

Nordic Anthropological Film Association

NAFA is an organization for cooperation within the field of visual anthropology and has been active since the mid-1970s. The institutional membership is primarily made up of social anthropological institutions and ethnographic museums in the nordic countries, plus several regional colleges and media schools. NAFA also has a growing number of individual members in the northern countries and around the world. It also arranges an annual International Film Festival and Conference where ethnographic films are shown and discussed with a large audience.
Deadline for submission is 3 March 2017

 

The Taiwan International Ethnographic Film FestivalTIEFF_LOGO

is Asia’s oldest and longest running international ethnographic film festival. This year’s theme, “Beyond the Human,” seeks to challenge human exceptionalism: the belief that we humans can dictate the terms of our relationship with the non-human. Inspired by recent anthropological research into the interconnections between humans, animals, technology, the environment, and the spirit-world, we are particularly interested in films which explore how our relationships with the non-human challenge our self-perception as a species. Moving “Beyond the Human” does not mean leaving humanity behind; it means expanding our definition to include even more of that which makes us human. Submissions are open until March 31, 2017.

Freedom, justice and tolerance should be the pillars of any society. We believe Israel must guarantee full social and political equality to all, regardless of religion, race, sex or sexual orientation.
As committed members of the Israeli LGBT community, we struggle for equality and respect by creating a serious, often controversial discourse through the medium of queer cinema. The Tel Aviv International LGBT film festival is the manifestation of this struggle.
The 12th TLVFest is scheduled to take place June 1st – June 10th, 2017 at the Tel Aviv Cinematheque.
Submission deadline is February 19, 2017
