Welcome to our Summer Season that runs Monthly from July thru September 2025.
NewFilmmakers NY is New York's longest running year round Film Festival. Throughout it's twenty-eight year run NewFilmmakers has provided a platform for first time and veteran filmmakers.
We have taken an exciting new direction with NewFilmmakers called NewFilmmakersPlus which will move our festival into the digital age and allow us to reach international audiences.
While theaters have been closed, our online audiences have greatly exceeded those in theaters. With NewFilmmakers Plus we have added the missing audience participation to our online screenings.
Now filmmakers, cast, and crew as well as audience members can create interactive video screening rooms while watching a film. Just by pushing the START A GROUPVIEW button to the right of the film they can invite up to six people to talk about the film in a video conference. It’s almost like watching side-by-side in real life — without having to share your popcorn.
In addition our films will now be available for two weeks and screenable any time of the day instead of only one night. This allows more people to see our films and makes it easier to set up a screening event with friends and colleagues. As requested we are switching to filmmaker hosted files utilizing unlisted YouTube links which will eliminate the need to transcode and to send us large files as well as giving filmmakers control over their film.
In today’s world online screenings give filmmakers worldwide audiences instead of limited local ones. With NewFilmmakers Plus filmmakers not only reach worldwide audiences but can interact with them as they would at a traditional theater.
Festival designed to showcase independent politically inclined films from all corners of the world.

In this time of divided cultures, our idealistic agenda is to help bridge the gap in some small way. To entertain and educate by films and screenplays that need to be seen by the world.

This international meeting, already a classic in Punta del Este, has some peculiarities that distinguish it from other Jewish Film Festivals in the world, due to the fact that it takes place in such a special seaside resort as Punta del Este, a meeting point where communities from different countries gather annually in Uruguay.
The Punta del Este Jewish Film Festival (Festival Internacional de Cine Judío de Uruguay, FICJU®) was born in 2003, with the purpose of generating a cultural, educational, didactic and illustrative space, oriented to promote the knowledge of the history of the Jewish people and its diverse cultures and traditions, thus seeking to strengthen our identity and integration through art.
Fiction films and documentaries with different perspectives of the Jewish theme are shown, spaces are organized for the analysis and reflection of the history, customs and cultures of our people around the world, and the memory of the Shoa (Holocaust) is constantly maintained.
We discover new aspects of our heritage and identity, as well as learn about the current conditions of the different Jewish communities around the world, fostering the integration of all Jewish people through the knowledge of our shared essence.
Thanks to the above, the Punta del Este Jewish Film Festival becomes a focus of tourist attraction, with an average of 2,500 attendees.

The International Summer Film Festival 2024 is underway and promises to be an unparalleled cinematic experience. This high-quality event, celebrating the best of the international short film world, has become a cornerstone of Montevideo's summer. Organized with passion and dedication by Uruguay Campus Film, the festival was born in 2022 with the aim of strengthening exhibition spaces for short films and promoting exchanges among national filmmakers.
This summer 2024, we are excited to offer an even more thrilling edition. After two successful previous editions, where we have already established ourselves as an international festival, we continue our commitment to bring the best of cinema to Montevideo and beyond.
We recognize that Uruguay's audiovisual scene continues to capture the attention of both locals and visitors, creating a constant demand for venues where filmmakers can share their creations with new audiences, and where these audiences can immerse themselves in the richness of national cinema in all its forms.
In this third edition of the Summer Film Festival, we have gone a step further. We have expanded our horizons by introducing a category dedicated to international short films. This will allow us to explore an even broader and more diverse cinematography, providing our audience with a rich and enriching cinematic experience.
Furthermore, we will continue to offer workshops and talks, where filmmakers will share their knowledge and experiences. Our mission is to create a relaxed learning space where conversations flow freely between filmmakers and audiences, allowing everyone to immerse themselves in the magical world of cinema.
The "Cinema in the Neighborhood" section will remain a highlight of the festival, connecting cinematic art with the local community through outdoor screenings in unusual and exciting locations.
The Summer Film Festival is a celebration of cinematic culture and a platform for local and international talent. It represents the culmination of over a decade of effort and dedication by Uruguay Campus Film and has its roots in previous events such as Cinema Day, Experimental Cinema, and UCF Shows Itself.
With each new edition, our festival advances toward more exciting horizons, offering a unique experience to film enthusiasts and those seeking to explore the richness of the seventh art.

We aim to forge a film festival and screenwriting competition that will ultimately launch the careers of writers and filmmakers.
We are a Sweden based independent film festival company and our event is pending quarantine restrictions.
This year we are adding a Screenplay Competition for the first time!
Our Screenplay Competition includes feature-length screenplays up to 120 pages, short film scripts up to 30 pages, and dramatic television pilots up to 75 pages. All screenplays must be unproduced and written in the English language.
We accept Screenplays written in English, Swedish, Portuguese or Spanish. We also accept screenplays with multiple languages, i.e., English with Spanish dialogues. This is because we have experienced judges from various countries around the world.
We also accept all genres and subgenres. E.g. Drama; Period Dramas; Romance; Comedy; Action/Adventure; Horror; Cosmic Horror; Folk; Slasher; Gothic; Monsters, Zombies and Vampires; Paranormal; Gore; Crime; Science Fiction; Thriller; Fantasy; Coming-of-Age; Spiritual Cinema; Road movies; Western; Musicals and Historical.
Submissions are scored on character development, story, dialogue, structure and originality.
By submitting your screenplay, you are automatically considered for our screenplay competition. For a higher fee, you receive a consultation with script notes from film producers and industry professionals who are currently making films, as well as other writers. Therefore, you will get notes from both worlds, production, and screenwriting.
Please note that we do not have celebrity judges. Many festivals and screenwriting competitions advertise that they do have celebrity judges but upon closer inspection, their “industry pros” are only reading the top five scripts or viewing the top five screenplays. Our judges are artists, writers, filmmakers, and film lovers. We have excellent taste, and we introduce our winners to top industry professionals.
The Myrtle Beach International Film Festival has been awarded several prestigious awards including one of the "Top 25 film festivals worth the entry fee" by Movie Maker Magazine and has become a favorite of many filmmakers and film enthusiast!
The MBIFF 18 will take place April 18 - 22 2023.
What sets the MBIFF apart from other festivals is our commitment to the true spirit of film. Once you are here, you are family.
Our judging panel includes judges from all walks of life, why? As with any subjective judging, it is important to have a broad spectrum of perspectives. Many film festivals house only filmmakers as judges, which can lead to niche judging which we feel is unfair to filmmakers, especially if you do not fall inside their niche. Your film receives the fair and honest treatment it deserves. By including other perspectives from different walks of life it creates a balanced judging platform, which we believe is why we have been touted as having one of the best film line ups in the World. We believe that your project receives a more overall perspective grading as to whether it entertains or informs a wider viewing audience rather than that of only an entire panel of film makers. Not to worry, we do have several film professional on board as judges!
The goal of the founder and director Jerry Dalton, was to create a venue for independent film makers which is not corrupted by politics.
The MBIFF screens projects in a multi-million dollar theater, housing state of the art technology.
We look forward to viewing your film /project!
