영화제 시작: 04 1월 2018      영화제 끝: 06 1월 2018

Silent Movie World Festival is the young but very important independent silent movie film festival in the world. We accept movies of any genres & duration.

The festival has stimulated and assisted the process of recovering and restoring the silent film heritage, which is the vital role of the world’s film archives. Lost films have been rediscovered, orphan reels have been identified, and chance personal encounters have led to restoration projects.

Silent Movie World Festival showcases features, shorts and music videos by filmmakers from all over the world to an audience of film executives and buyers, journalists, film fans and filmmakers. Along with screenings, there are seminars, workshops and parties to allow everyone the chance to share our passion for silent film.

Silent Movie World Festival satisfies the public's thirst for original filmmaking through its diverse international programming.
