Festival del cortometraggio di Bucarest [BSFF]
Indipendente è la parola chiave per il Bucharest Short Film Festival [BSFF], in quanto è stato fondato da professionisti del cinema indipendente e si concentra su artisti indipendenti nel cinema, provenienti da tutto il mondo. Il Bucharest Short Film Festival mira a riconoscere, mostrare e diffondere i cortometraggi internazionali più professionali, innovativi e più interessanti, dando sempre la priorità ai cortometraggi indipendenti.
Il Bucharest Short Film Festival presenterà alcuni dei migliori cortometraggi internazionali in Narrativa, Animazione, Studente, Sperimentale, Documentario, Video Musicale e Diritti Umani. Prendiamo a cuore la mole di lavoro dedicata a ogni film. Pertanto, le regole del festival assicurano che ogni film venga rivisto almeno due volte e ben dibattuto dal nostro team. Alcuni dei film premiati saranno proiettati anche in altri festival cinematografici internazionali.
Gli artisti indipendenti e i loro cortometraggi incontreranno un pubblico effervescente e abbastanza esperto con cinema e festival cinematografici, garantendo networking di qualità e opportunità coinvolgenti, mentre i film selezionati saranno determinati da una giuria di esperti del settore.
Il Bucharest Short Film Festival sta costruendo una forte comunità di interesse attorno ai professionisti del cinema indipendente internazionale e agli amanti del cinema, nel cuore di una delle capitali emergenti più interessanti dell'arte e della cultura, una città che non dorme mai: Bucarest.
Il festival organizzerà proiezioni di film, precedute o seguite da domande e risposte degli artisti, o eventi collaterali di networking e, sicuramente, feste, che si svolgono tutte in vari palcoscenici convenzionali e non convenzionali intorno a Bucarest, come nei cinema, negli spazi aperti e persino nei teatri estivi. Bucarest, ne hai sentito parlare, alla fine: una città per giovani. Ben noto per cose diverse - come il soprannome di «Vecchia Parigi», nei suoi tempi borghesi, prima dei decenni del comunismo, o il più grande edificio parlamentare del mondo [e uno dei più grandi edifici di qualsiasi tipo], dai tempi del comunismo, la nuova architettura, o l'esplosiva scena artistica contemporanea, e anche il impressionanti comunità sotterranee di arte e musica e vita notturna, nei suoi tempi attuali.

SFG (Serile Filmului Gay / Gay Film Nights), the only LGBTQ International Film Festival in Romania, reaches its 14th edition. The event will take place in Cluj-Napoca, between the 8th and 17th of May 2020. The entry to all the screenings is free for the public.
Every year, the festival invests a lot of effort into bringing together international cinematographic productions with an LGBT+ theme, while also creating the opportunity for some other related events to take place under the scope of the festival. Among those cultural events, we mention video production workshops, photography and painting exhibitions, environmental actions, flash mobs, “Living Library”-type of workshops, “Show & Tell” exhibitions, social events intended to attract strong media exposure, as well as debates, lectures, and dialogues about the situation of LGBTQ people in Romania, and last but not least, events focused on health related aspects, such as the HIV infection rate among the LGBT+ community in the country.
While most initiatives in Romania that focused their attention on LGBTQ+ issues during the past few years have shifted their approach towards a more hands-on type of involvement, seeking to reduce the levels of social stigma and discrimination by accentuating the necessity of supporting LGBT+ rights, The SFG International Film Festival follows a different approach. Starting from the premise that mainstream media is flooded by rather incorrect and misleading messages, contaminated by obvious prejudice and stereotypes, this festival is meant to act as an outlet of communication by means of culture and openness towards society. This ambitious aim can be achieved by exposure to appropriate media content and by sending out correct messages through each of the events that make up the “spinal cord” of the official festival program.
Over the course of the past decade, The SFG International Film Festival has been constantly growing. From humble beginnings with only a few films projected in a couple of consecutive evenings to a mature festival, lasting an entire week, with several film screenings taking place simultaneously in different locations and a diverse array of related events.
We are proud to announce that with each edition, we are able to deliver a selection of over 50 selected films, pertaining to three categories: short films, feature films and documentaries. Each of these films places an emphasis on various aspects of the lives of LGBT people. It has often been the case that the directors or producers of the films are present at the screenings as special guests, engaging in an interesting conversation with the public, sometimes starting from the intention of finding similarities between both the positive and the negative aspects of LGBT life in the film’s country of origin and in Romania.

Brasília Animation Festival is the firts International Film Festival in Brasília, exclusevily for animation movies. The short films selected will be displayed between 04 and October 06, 2019. There will be a special session, named "Bloody Session", dedicated exclusively to marginal, experimental movies, fantastic, surreal and even scatological.
Lo scopo principale di La mida no Importa-size Doesn't Matter è promuovere la produzione e la cultura del cortometraggio.
A volte veniamo avvertiti che se «le dimensioni non contano» dovremmo selezionare e mostrare opere audiovisive senza limiti di lunghezza, e forse non ci sbagliamo. Tuttavia, ci piace pensare che le cose non debbano essere troppo grandi per essere importanti, belle, necessarie o decisive, e questa è la filosofia che applichiamo fin dalla prima edizione di questo Festival.
Rivendichiamo le opere di breve durata perché crediamo che sia possibile scoprire l'ingegno concentrato in un breve lasso di tempo. Questo obiettivo è il motivo che ci spinge e ci spinge a continuare a cercare e frugare tra le proposte che ci pervengono per fare una selezione di temi, tipologie e generi molto diversi per mostrare la gamma di possibilità espressive del racconto breve.

With a look to the future of Independent Film, the Cutting Edge Film Festival has officially opened its call for entries for feature length and short length films of all genres.
Our festival is looking for the highest caliber of films that audiences can’t, and won’t forget, films created on the cutting edge of imagination, vision, and excitement while incorporating the best filmmaking into the art of the story.
For our 2018 festival, we shall be accepting all films of all lengths and genres including Documentary, Experimental, Religious/Spiritual, Animation, Comedy, Horror, with Horror sub-genres that include Supernatural, Thrillers, Wicken, Magical, Slashers, Science Fiction, Suspense, Horror Documentary, Horror Animation and all genres of Music Videos and LGBT films for the 2018 festival.
The Cutting Edge Film Festival sees film as an art form that has the power to bridge cultures and illuminate the universality of the human experience. Our festival seeks to enrich, to educate, and to entertain the world through the medium of film, and to unveil each filmmaker’s unique vision as a true masterpiece of craftsmanship and passion.
Our festival is a 501(c)(3) charitable non-profit organization which endeavors to promote the best filmmakers and their films to an ever-growing worldwide audience as a powerful medium that inspires creativity, encourages introspection, and compels the exploration of the senses, and expands the imagination.
The Cutting Edge Film Festival brings all the new technologies to bear and offers an event for the next step in film festival evolution. Now in the new millennium of filmmaking, our festival takes a leap forward and pierces the veil between the worldwide film audience and independent films with a cutting edge virtual theater that crumbles the boundaries that have in the past limited those who could partake in each filmmaker’s vision captured on film.
Much like with the digital technology that has swept independent film festivals throughout the world since the early 2000s, for many reasons the virtual theater is quickly becoming the first, best choice for festivals, and the new home of Independent film screening worldwide.
The virtual theater is the future of film festivals, as more and more festivals are now screening films online, and even the big festivals such as the Sundance Film Festival and the Tribeca Film Festival are moving to online screenings.
Festivals are making the leap to cyber screenings because of many reasons, including that it allows for so much more exposure for the films. It is expected that just like the extinction of the 35mm projectors that were replaced with digital, one day in the not too distant future all film festivals will screen almost exclusively online, with only a few live presentations, if any.
Unlike most other Film Festivals, ours is different because it offers a unique method of viewing films in an online film festival that is totally secure and safe for a filmmaker’s project, and even those that provide online festivals cannot duplicate the safety and security that our virtual theater offers.
Very different from other festivals streaming films online, films in this festival cannot be downloaded, the films HAVE NO EMBEDDING CODE and our HTML code if copied and pasted, the films will not play, therefore they CANNOT be placed on other websites.
The only time and place they can be viewed is in our festival. In short, we have gone to great lengths to set this system up to protect the safety and security of each filmmaker’s film always keeping the filmmaker in mind. Basically, it is just as secure as a brick and mortar theater screening, only much better.
The virtual theater system and screening platform is completely secure and can be viewed from any computer, and mobile device.
The Cutting Edge Film Festival is opening the doors and tearing down the walls between independent films, and the audiences who love them so much, allowing the world to share in their power and passion.
Cutting Edge Film Festival awards outstanding filmmakers and their work with Best of Genre Awards, along with an Audience Choice Award.
Film Selections Will be Announced October 6th, 2018
Our festival will take place October 18th, 2018, through October 27th, 2018
