Nas últimas décadas, e ao mesmo tempo em que surgiram novas tecnologias que acabaram por escanear a maioria dos processos do filme, o documentário conheceu um crescimento notório e sistemático em todo o mundo. Em nosso país, e há mais de uma década, uma produção antes ligada quase exclusivamente à ficção vem aumentando suas fileiras com novos tópicos, novas abordagens, novas geografias, novos dilemas.
É nesse contexto que a FIDBA é proposta como a 1ª. Festival Internacional de Cinema dedicado a esse gênero em que filmes com os mesmos fãs - desde que acreditemos que as formas e os feitos do documentário sejam diferentes dos da ficção - podem se encontrar e dialogar entre eles e com o público. Se o documentário é um ponto de encontro para a FIDBA, é na medida em que propõe uma interpelação às memórias pouco conhecidas, perturbadoras do presente e do (nosso) futuro em suspensão. O FIDBA será então uma abordagem não apenas entre públicos, cineastas e pensadores vinculados ao documentário, mas também em relação às possibilidades sempre estimulantes que permitem abrir esse espaço para outras expressões fronteiriças e heterodoxas enquadradas dentro do que chamaríamos de “não ficção” e que nos incentivam a dialogar com expressões contemporâneas que vão além do escopo do filme.
A FIDBA prestará atenção especial aos cineastas para os quais o cinema está ligado a uma forma de pesquisa e conhecimento do mundo que nos rodeia quanto ao retrato de seres humanos cujas condições de vida, em determinados contextos históricos e sociais, permitem que você nos pergunte sobre o nosso. São, portanto, autores que não apenas refletem a realidade, mas também a relação ética e moral que envolve filmar o outro.
O FIDBA pretende se tornar um ponto de apoio para cineastas que buscam ampliar a percepção da realidade e para filmes que representem um avanço no esforço de compreendê-la e antecipá-la. Assim, focará em filmes cuja originalidade estética coloca em risco não apenas uma ideia do documentário, mas também um pensamento sobre o mesmo filme e suas possibilidades. Como esse foco implica questionar o status da frente real da câmera ou do filme em relação à realidade, isso é tão inseparável das mediações que surgem.
La muestra internacional de cortometrajes Video/Jujuy/Cortos é um espaço de projeção audiovisual NÃO competitivo, sem fins lucrativos, aberto e gratuito organizado anualmente pela Wayruro Comunicación Popular.
O objetivo do Festival é promover a produção e divulgação de audiovisuais como meio de expressão e comunicação.
Este espaço artístico/cultural gratuito nasceu em 2002. Desde o início, o festival estabeleceu relações com escolas, organizações sociais, de bairro, de direitos humanos e artísticas, centros de atividades juvenis e organizações de povos nativos, tentando ser permeável às necessidades e demandas do meio, tanto em termos de temas quanto de gêneros, resultando em um programa variado que vai do vídeo social à animação, incluindo ficção e audiovisuais experimentais.
Como espaço e local de reflexão e ponto de encontro de criadores, profissionais renomados ministram workshops e palestras, buscando fornecer informações e treinamentos, gratuitamente, aos interessados. Este ano, a exposição foca esse espaço em pensar sobre a situação audiovisual, trabalhar e pensar em redes e consolidar a produção audiovisual comunitária e popular.
The 30 Dies Festival is a tiny festival located in a tiny country between France and Spain which focuses on the fantastic film genre. On 2014 we had our first edition with 14 films screened during November in two venues. Our festival covers any film with fantastic elements within the genre of thriller / horror / action / creature / documentary / sci fi - films. At this year’s edition we have two categories: Feature Films and Short films (Under 20 minutes).
The 30 Dies Festival loves indie films and, for this reason, we accept films recorded in every format and with any kind of budget, but be sure that your film fits into our festival.
Feedback: The one element most festivals ignore.
Instead of paying submission fees and getting nothing in return, EVERYONE who submits to DOFIFF.COM will receive EITHER ONE OF TWO benefits: Either 1): your film is already competition calibre, and becomes an Official Selection, OR 2): you’ll receive a letter outlining exactly what is keeping it from being accepted. If you can make corrections, you resubmit for FREE.
First-time filmmakers: when have you ever received a letter and had the festival explain "WHY" you weren't selected? See why filmmakers thank us and say “Best Festival Ever!”
-Guaranteed distributor review by World Wide Motion Pictures Corporation (WWMPC.COM), Adler & Associates, and Polaris Pictures (for Screenplays) among others, AT NO EXTRA COST TO YOU, for our select few ‘Best Of’ and "Award of Excellence" winners based on sufficient qualified entries. For this free service, DOFIFF requires NO CONTRACTS to be signed.
-The chance to thereby be included in one of that distributor’s buyers’ packets on the world film market
-A festival that is run as a web-based competition, instead of a traditional film festival: 100% of our effort and investment goes into finding a market for you, not into renting theatres unless it is dictated by the distributors to further test the market.
-All "Best Of Show" and "Award Of Outstanding Excellence" may have their trailers shown on WRPN.TV entertainment news next to Hollywood celebrity interviews (optional)
-Any film that is rejected will receive a personal letter explaining what elements caused the rejection (unlike other fests who never give any explanation at all). HINT: majority of rejections or low award levels, are due to insufficient volume on dialogue soundtracks.
-Any film that is accepted, but fails to move on to award status, will be given a free synopsis of the judges notes, at the filmmakers request, for free
-FREE Earlybird entry of any rejected film, into DOFIFF’s next competition, upon completion of the suggested corrections outlined in your rejection letter
-$28 flat fee for ALL STUDENT FILM ENTRIES regardless of deadline status (proof required of student status at time of filming: no refunds if your ID is not legitimate)

“Dust Collector” category for pre-2009 films
“Tight Shorts” and “Loose Shorts” distinction between running times of less than 15 minutes and those between 15-59 minutes
“Horror” and “Sci-Fi” have been separated into two distinct categories
-Finally, you can rest assured that our co-founder is a proud Committee Member for the Universal Film & Festival Organization (UFFO.ORG). The UFFO is a non-profit operating out of the U.K., which exists for "Promoting best business practices for film festivals.” This guarantees that your film will benefit from a fair and thorough judging process.

Depuis 2013, l’association « Les Alibis » organise le Film Noir Festival, un festival de films ayant pour thème le Film Noir. Il s’agit du premier et du seul festival en France ayant pour thème ce genre cinématographique.
Lors des premières éditions, le Film Noir Festival s’était donné comme objectif d’éclairer le public sur le courant cinématographique qu’est le Film Noir.
Durant 4 jours, ce sont plus de 30 films de jeunes réalisateurs, au travers de la compétition internationale de courts métrages soumise au regard du jury des professionnels, mais aussi de cinéastes plus confirmés par le biais de la rétrospective généraliste de longs métrages et des avant-premières nationales, qui ont été présentés à un large public éclectique et de tout âge.
En octobre 2013, le Film Noir Festival s’est associé à la Film Noir Foundation de San Francisco créée et présidée par Eddie Muller, spécialiste mondial du Film Noir et fondateur du festival Noir City à San Francisco, à qui elle a décerné son premier Prix d'honneur en décembre 2013.
Pour sa quatrième édition, qui se tiendra du 24 au 27 novembre 2016 au cinéma "Le Vincennes" (94), le Film Noir Festival poursuivra son éclairage sur le Film Noir en proposant de nouveau une programmation de films inédits ou rares au travers de la rétrospective de 10 longs métrages, des avant-premières en ouverture et en clôture du Festival, des hommages à des réalisateurs, des acteurs ou des compositeurs emblématiques du Film Noir mais également au travers de la compétition internationale de courts métrages.
