LIFE AFTER OIL International Film Festival is an environmental and human rights film festival.
Its works deal with topics such as investigative journalism, whistleblowing, protest, struggles, resistance, alternative solutions, and best practices related to the environment and human rights.
The Anatomy Crime – Horror International Film Festival (A.C.H.I.F.F.) is an annual international showcase dedicated to independent filmmakers. Founded in 2017 by THE BASEMENT, a nonprofit Cultural and Educational Organization (B.C.E.O.), the festival was created by creators, for creators — offering a platform where powerful stories can thrive regardless of budget.
In an industry dominated by studios and large‑scale productions, independent voices often struggle to be heard. A.C.H.I.F.F. exists to change that. We champion filmmakers with limited resources but strong artistic vision, giving them international visibility and meaningful recognition.
At A.C.H.I.F.F., every participant is acknowledged. Gold and Silver winners receive official certificates, while all filmmakers — regardless of category or distinction — receive personalized poster‑awards. With a wide range of award categories spanning narrative, performance, technical craft, and visual identity, the festival ensures that every creator leaves with something significant. Winners, nominees, and finalists may also acquire handcrafted bust‑awards made from resin and hand‑painted, offering a unique physical keepsake of their achievement.
A New Monthly Format
Beginning this year, A.C.H.I.F.F. adopts a monthly structure. Filmmakers submit their short films to the category of their choice (Horror, Crime, General/Sci‑Fi/Thriller, or Micro Short). Each month, the jury evaluates submissions and announces monthly winners, nominees, and finalists.
Annual Audience Award Selection: From the year's total submissions, the festival jury selects a total of 13 representative short films which compete and are screened for the annual Audience Award.
Annual Categories & Screenings (Directing, Cinematography, Editing, etc.): Annual awards are rarely presented and films are screened only in exceptional cases, exclusively when their form, structure, or originality is such that we ensure the audience must not miss them.
Recognition & Prestige
A.C.H.I.F.F. is an IMDb‑verified festival, ensuring that every official selection and award is formally recognized. Over the years, the festival has attracted filmmakers whose works have been screened at major international festivals and awards, including the Academy Awards (U.S.), Sitges, Brussels International Fantastic Film Festival, Cannes, Sundance, and Tribeca.
This growing network highlights A.C.H.I.F.F. as a trusted platform for independent voices in horror, crime, and beyond.
✨ Submit your film and join a festival that celebrates bold storytelling, supports independent talent, and brings unforgettable visions to the screen.
