The Diabolique International Film Festival takes place September 19-20, 2014 in Bloomington, Indiana for the premiere showcase of independent genre cinema, featuring horror, sci-fi, fantasy and animation.
The Diabolique International Film Festival began more than 8 years ago. Since 2007 we have screened over 250 films from more than a dozen countries, and from almost every state in the US. We’ve had the honor of hosting visiting filmmakers from around the country, and from around the world. Over the years, we have gained a reputation as a festival that truly values independent genre films and the people who make them. Many of the movies from our past festivals have been picked up by major distributors, and our event has provided numerous networking opportunities.
As a result, we’ve been featured in a variety of national publications, having been recognized by MovieMaker Magazine as one of the “Top 25 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee,” and one of the “13 Horror Film Festivals to Die For.”
The new year brings some big changes to the festival, including a new name, new venue, and new sponsors. We’re particularly excited to announce our partnership with one of the fastest growing genre publications in the world, Diabolique Magazine. The publishers of Diabolique bring their considerable industry connections and marketing reach to the table in a way that we hope will propel this festival forward for many years to come.
In addition to a name change, we’re also excited to announce our new venue, IU Cinema on the Indiana University campus. With state-of-the-art 2K and 4K digital projection (as well as 16mm and 35mm film projection) IU Cinema offers the highest possible projection quality.
Il concorso e’ rivolto ai filmaker di ogni parte del mondo che producono cortometraggi e documentari.
L’obiettivo e’ quello di valorizzare il cortometraggio e il docu-film ai fini dell’espressività e divulgazione culturale, creando un evento cinematografico su tutto il territorio della Valle d’Intelvi.
4th INTERNATIONAL CHANGING PERSPECTIVES SHORT FILM FESTIVAL REGULATIONS
ABOUT FESTIVAL
Initiated by Katadrom Arts and Culture and Social Politics Association based in Istanbul- ‘The 4th International Changing Perspectives Short Film Festival’ will be held between the dates of 6th - 8th of May 2016 in Istanbul, to then continue its yearly tour across other cities: Berlin, Yogyakarta, and other cities around the world.

Festival Date: 6 - 8 May 2015, Istanbul

The topic of 2016 - “Border”
This year, the main topic of the festival will be “Border”. There will be a festival section about 15 films, a photography exhibition and a panel discussion focusing on the main topic.
There are so many different borders: physical borders, geographical borders, social borders, mental borders, political borders, sexual borders, religious borders, imaginary borders – to name just a few.
To be born or to live on one side or the other of a border is often random.
However, it’s not so easy to let go of the constrictions borders create, as our identities are often shaped upon a deep conviction of belonging to one, unique place, country, religion or gender. During the festival we want to explore the different aspects of border providing a platform for all the diverse perspectives on the topic. Besides 2016 thematic-focused program, the festival will also screen films under its traditional sections: Exchange Experience, Cultural Insights, Ridicule, Umbrella.

True to David Reuben's classic book "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex * But Were Afraid to Ask " we love movies that give us new insights on topics like sexual liberation, erotic fantasies, BDSM, sexual shame, cultural sexual diffrences, the "new" prudery, pornography, the impact of the internet porn on our sexuality and sex activism. The discourse with the filmmakers and actors is very important to us. Therefore we try to invite as many protagonists and directors as possible to our festival and thus offer the audience the opportunity for a dialogue.

FARO 1540 - Associazione per la difesa e la promozione del patrimonio ambientale e culturale di Faro, dopo il successo delle ultime edizioni di FARCUME - Festival internazionale dei cortometraggi di Faro, organizza l'undicesima edizione di questo Festival che si terrà nella città di Faro dal 26 al 28 settembre 2025.
Questa 15a edizione di FARCUME intende esporre e promuovere opere nella sezione cortometraggi della durata massima di 18 minuti, suddivise in tre categorie: Animazione, Documentario e Finzione.
A questo festival, tutti i cittadini nazionali e stranieri possono partecipare, individualmente o in gruppo, semplicemente rispettando le disposizioni del regolamento, compilando un modulo di registrazione e inviando le loro opere all'organizzazione entro l'11 luglio 2025, previa preselezione.
Lo scopo principale di questo Festival rimane lo stesso: pubblicizzare e lanciare nuovi talenti e promuovere presso il pubblico le opere eccellenti che vengono realizzate in questo settore ma non sempre hanno la promozione desiderata e meritata.
In altre parole, FARCUME in un ambiente informale, di buon umore e di atmosfera rilassata intende premiare e riconoscere la dedizione, l'impegno, la creatività e il merito di registi, attori e team tecnici che, con mezzi modesti, possono sviluppare opere di grande qualità.
Considerati i principi e gli obiettivi di «FARO 1540", che ha anche lo status di ONG (Organizzazione non governativa per l'ambiente), il Festival continuerà ad avere una forte preoccupazione e sensibilità ambientale, avvisando i partecipanti di non presentare cortometraggi che rivendicano o incoraggiano la mancanza di rispetto per l'ambiente, la disuguaglianza dei diritti umani o l'abuso di animali. Sarà ulteriormente sviluppato un piano di gestione ambientale specificamente «progettato» per questo evento per garantire l'ottimizzazione delle risorse necessarie per la promozione e la realizzazione dell'evento e la gestione dei rifiuti generati.
L’International Comic Video Festival, è dedicato esclusivamente al “Corto Comico”.
In Italia ci sono tentativi di concorsi analoghi ma sono di risonanza locale, talvolta tesi a promuovere più che altro “i sapori, i colori e le tradizioni” di una regione oppure contrappongono solo esibizioni di cabaret.
L’International Comic Video Festival risulta dunque il primo e il solo Festival Internazionale dedicato esclusivamente al cortometraggio di carattere comico.
Il Festival si articola in sei Sezioni: Short-Com, Candid Camera, Free, Gag, Viral Marketing, Virale.
