SEMBRANDO CINE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL
XII EDITION: Recognizing our shadow

Our shade can be a real problem.

It is that side of our humanity, which we prefer to keep hidden, and which makes us act questionably.

This shadow, is in part, what has led us to cause a terrible impact on the environment.

Deforestation, oil spills, pollution of soils and seas, annihilation of species, violation of indigenous rights and assassinations of environmental defenders.

This shadow, individual and collective, is projected from the big cities over our ecosystems and under the protection of state legality and private investments in favor of “progress and industrialization”.

In times where the imbalance we have caused in the environment, comes back at us like climate disasters and nature embezzles, it behooves us to dare to look back at this shadow.

We have a responsibility to understand its impact, point out those projecting it and demand regulations to defend those it affects.

They say that the first step to solving a problem is to identify it and today, through cinema, we seek to acknowledge our actions, to stop the advance of their consequences on our unique natural environment.

- The Festival's selection committee may withdraw at any time any audiovisual product that does not comply with any of the terms and conditions or any of the guidelines.

2. CATEGORIES

We will give special visibility to productions related to environmental leadership issues. However, we also welcome those works that narrate about the different types of contamination and threats to the territories, violation of food sovereignty and other processes of resistance and collective denunciations where human and environmental rights are involved.

Films may be submitted under any film genre, and according to their duration will be selected to participate in the following scenarios:

-Official Selection: The Limits Exist

In this edition we seek to promote the visibility of the different environmental leaderships, problematizing the constant violation of the human rights of those involved in this work and the need for state support to protect their work. Therefore, the related productions may be chosen to be screened for debates and discussions within the framework of the Festival's other activities. In this case, the corresponding directors will be informed.

Feature films will be selected in documentary, animation, non-fiction and/or audiovisual experimentation formats, with a duration of more than 40 minutes and with no maximum duration limit. These films will be screened at the Festival's partner theaters in the city of Lima, Peru.

-Short films

Documentaries, fictions and animations of all nationalities may participate, with a maximum duration of 40 minutes.

Likewise, the format may be any of those mentioned in the previous section.

3. FORMATS AND SUBMISSION OF MATERIALS

- For the pre-selection process, links for private viewing on Vimeo, YouTube, or any other platform, which may be password-protected, may be sent; the password must be provided in the registration form.

- Non-Spanish speaking films must have the original audio and Spanish subtitles.

4. EXCLUSIVITY AND CONFIDENTIALITY

- Once the film has been selected, it may not be withdrawn from the program nor may it be presented by the Festival in free or paid exhibition platforms.

- Participants agree to place the festival's laurels in the opening or closing credits. These will be provided by the organizers.

5. OWNERSHIP AND DISTRIBUTION RIGHTS

- The person who registers the work declares and acknowledges that he/she is the universal owner of the rights of diffusion and distribution of the registered works. Likewise, he/she must inform the due authorization and cession of rights of the soundtrack, incidental music, and all archival material included in the submitted work; in short, he/she accepts that he/she is the sole responsible before other companies or persons who have participated in the production of such materials.

- The selection of a work implies the free assignment of the screening rights of the work within the framework of the Sembrando Cine Festival for the current 2024 edition.

- The works may be part of the parallel screenings that are linked to other festivals and educational functions during the dates that coincide with the Festival. This will be done with prior notice.

- Once the screening materials have been sent, it is understood that the producer of the work will not be able to withdraw the film from the selection.

- The Festival will be provided with all the necessary materials for the diffusion of the work, such as: presskit, trailer, sequences, stills, promotional photographs and poster in editable version, which the Festival may adapt for digital, televised, projected or printed communication.
