Le festival La Garenne\Tout Court propose un projet culturel unique dans les Hauts-de-Seine : une compétition de courts-métrages qui valorisent la création indépendante, française et européenne.
Le festival présentera donc trois sélections de courts-métrages.
La première sera composée de fictions réalisées sans le soutien du CNC ni des chaînes de télévision. Non pas que le festival s’inscrive contre ces sources de financement, mais nous ne voulons pas créer un énième festival où seraient exposés des films qui ont déjà une belle vie ailleurs.
La Garenne\Tout Court, c’est un espace de diffusion parallèle, dédié aux œuvres insolites, un soutien à la diffusion de films plus fragiles.
La deuxième aura pour ambition de faire découvrir des films originaux venus de toute l’Europe.
La troisième sélection aura pour objectif de sensibiliser le jeune public autour d’un ciné-p’tit déj.
Aucun genre n’est imposé, la seule contrainte déterminée à l’avance est celle de la durée : 15 minutes pour les sélections française et européenne et 10 minutes pour le ciné-p’tit déj.
Un comité de présélection composé de membres de l’association 2euxième Acte retiendra une trentaine de films. Les films sélectionnés devront répondre à des impératifs d’originalité, de qualités artistiques mais aussi techniques.
Le festival La Garenne\Tout Court est également un lieu de convergence entre les acteurs du monde cinématographique et un moment de rencontre privilégié et convivial avec le grand public.
The Beeston Film Festival attracts the latest global short films to the East Midlands AND NOW to filmmakers too! In a unique offering your Beeston Film Festival entry fee is your admission to watch the whole On-line Festival! You will be able to watch the competition in your category and enjoy the talent in all the others.
The On-Line Festival presents films accepted into ALL categories – Drama, Comedy, Horror, Documentary, Animation and the local Three Counties competition. The On-Line Festival will be available for 3 weeks after the festival in Beeston.
The Beeston Oscar, or B’Oscar, is awarded to the best film in the following categories - Drama, Horror, Comedy, Documentary and Animation.
This year a new local competition has been created called Three Counties category, that is split into two sections: Long (up to 15 minutes); and Short (up to 5 minutes). Filmmakers from Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Leicestershire ONLY with films in any genre can submit. The prize pool is amazing because we have teamed up with Matthew Martino Benevolent Fund (MMBF), a UK based international charity that supports filmmakers and actors, so as well as a B’Oscar there is
Three Counties Long - a MMBF Rising Star Award (£150 prize, mentoring plus physical award and other perks)
Three Counties Short - a MMBF Best Short Award (£50 prize and physical award).
Further prizes will be awarded for Best Director, Best Script, Best Cinematography, Best Acting Performance, Best Soundtrack & Sound Design and an Audience award, too. And, of course, there is a wonderful Best in Festival B’Oscar, too, designed by the renowned ceramic artist, Anna Collette Hunt.

The Roze Filmdagen have been a constant factor in Amsterdam's LGBTQ cultural landscape since 1996. The festival has earned an excellent reputation amongst its visitors, as well as with filmmakers and festivals abroad.
An organization dedicated to the recognition and encouragement of sex-positive and kink-friendly depictions in film and television, CineKink is seeking films and videos that explore and celebrate the wide diversity of sexuality for our annual NYC-based festival.
Scheduled for its 12th annual appearance in February 2015, the specially-curated CineKink NYC will include a short film competition, audience choice awards, an adult industry showcase, presentations, parties and a gala kick-off, with a national screening tour to follow.
Cutting across orientations, topics covered at CineKink have included — but are by no means limited to — BDSM, leather and fetish, swinging, non-monogamy and polyamory, roleplay and gender bending, sex work and sex geekery. We’re looking to blur some boundaries and will be considering offerings of any length and genre drawn from both Hollywood and beyond, with works ranging from documentary to drama, camp comedy to artsy experimental, mildly spicy to quite explicit — and everything in between. Basically, as long as it involves consenting adults, just about anything celebrating sex as a right of self expression is fair game. (Far be it from us to define “kink” — if you think your work might make sense in this context, please send it along!)

Bare Bones was created to champion the small budget filmmaker who wears many hats to bring their project to completion By Any Means Necessary. BAMN! 'No Frills-No Waste' is our common battle cry.
If you are a fiercely independent filmmaker producing small budget films or a screenwriter that can craft a script that can be shot on a small (less than a million dollar) budget, this festival is for you.
We are a festival run by Filmmakers, Professors of Film and Film Fans for Filmmakers, Film Students and Film Fans at all levels of expertise. This is a festival where recognition is generous and you are the Star no matter what role you played or how many roles you assumed, everyone is treated like a Rock Star. We roll out the red carpet for your premiere, allow time for Q & A following the screening, or the block of films if you are in the shorts category. We hold live readings of your screenplay with professional actors with you directing.
If you have special skills, you may be invited to moderate a panel or participate as a panelist. Festival Alumni also serve as Awards Presenters during the Bonehead Awards Gala.
KloosterKino is the place to be for animated shorts in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. Three times a year we show the best animated shorts from all over the world in a friendly setting. The screenings take place in a historic cloister, which dates back to 1909, and are not subject to admission.
KloosterKino shows work by young filmmakers, but also pays attention to classic animated film. Throughout the year we also work with other festivals and cultural organizations to arrange screenings of animated shorts.
But why animated shorts? Well, first of all, because we love them! But also because too few animated shorts are shown theatrically in the Netherlands. KloosterKino wants to show animation in all its diversity: from stop-motion to CGI, from narrative to abstract, homegrown and from far away. In doing so, we hope to aid in the diffusion of the artistic animated short.
We intend to be an alternative to the larger animation festivals by offering screenings which are both accessible and challenging. We stand for high quality animated film in welcoming surroundings. Our target audience is not just the animation aficionado, but also those who normally don’t watch animation, but are open to a surprising and stimulating program of films.
KloosterKino is a nonprofit foundation, that depends on volunteers and gifts.

12 Festival Audiovisual Infantil (FICAIJ), 2021/2022
Venezuela-Colombia
El Festival Audiovisual Infantil, conocido por sus siglas como FICAIJ, nace en Mérida, Venezuela, en 2010, y se consolida tras 12 años como una de las más importantes ventanas de exhibición de contenidos de calidad tanto educativos y alternativos como comerciales para niños, niñas, adolescentes, jóvenes y familias en el país y la región.
Tras haber atendido de forma directa a más de 41.385 mil participantes en sus 11 ediciones anteriores en 6 países del mundo. Frente al panorama de pandemia que vivimos por el COVID-19, asumimos el reto de transformarnos y activar nuestra edición número 12 en la web con incidencia principal en los países de la región. Adicionalmente, planeamos tener algunas proyecciones presenciales en Venezuela y Colombia.
Historia:
Más de 1.506 obras audiovisuales entre cortos y largos provenientes de 81 países del mundo fueron transmitidas a través de las pantallas del FICAIJ, y más de 392 personas entre niños, niñas, adolescentes, jóvenes y adultos cumplieron la labor de evaluar y ser jurados de esas obras.
Nuestros jurados no solo provenían de Venezuela y de Colombia sino de otros 9 países: Argentina, Brasil, Cuba, Ecuador, España, Italia, Kenia, México y Sudáfrica, participando en representación de sus lugares de procedencia.
Filosofía:
Promovemos el audiovisual desde una mirada reflexiva y productiva, invitando a niños, niñas, adolescentes y jóvenes a asumir un rol activo como creadores y prosumidores.
Misión:
El FICAIJ busca alentar la creación, producción, exhibición y distribución de contenidos de calidad para y por niños, niñas, adolescentes y jóvenes de la región, estimulando el protagonismo de los chicos en todos estos procesos.
2do. Laboratorio FICAIJ:
Con el doble propósito de fortalecer, por un lado, la producción de contenidos infantiles, juveniles y familiares a nivel regional, y por el otro la formación de docentes en la educación con y para los medios, necesidad más evidente ante la educación digital impuesta por la pandemia, la organización del FICAIJ asume el reto de desarrollar la 2da. edición de su Laboratorio FICAIJ, un espacio de formación dirigido al sector de producción de contenidos para chicos y chicas latinoamerican@s y al sector de la educación.
