The Directors Circle Festival Of Shorts is internationally recognized as a premiere showcase for creative, inspiring, and influential films of all types.
Bold visions, adventurous ideas, skillfully crafted and artistically inspired projects are the kinds of films we are looking for.
Our unique film festival reaches new heights internationally for independent film festivals presenting our films in a way unlike any other film festival in the world via our online screening platform and theater system. Viewing interactively online allows independent filmmakers and fans to take pleasure in the films worldwide on the go, from work and from the comfort of their own homes. In the technologically advanced world we live in, where communication and convenience MUST be at the tips of our fingers, we knew this was the next progressive step in film festivals.
Since debuting our fest in 2010 we have gained even more recognition among the film viewing public and filmmakers, not to mention production houses and distributors, because they no longer have to travel to find the next film that will make Hollywood sit up and take notice. Currently, convenience is the name of the game, especially for the independent film industry.
The 2018 DCSF will host a live film festival event in the great City of Erie Pennsylvania that will screen the best and most innovative films of the 2018 season. Housed in the historic Renaissance Centre located in beautiful downtown Erie, the 2018 DCSF live Festival will run consecutively with the opening weekend of the Festival.
Our online festival is presented in a virtual theater setting that will allow users to watch the films while the films remain completely safe from download or reproduction.
Films in this festival cannot be downloaded, the films HAVE NO EMBEDDING CODE and the HTML codes of the films, if copied and pasted, the films will not play, therefore they CANNOT be placed on other websites. The only time and place they can be viewed is in our festival. In short, we have gone to great lengths to set this system up to protect the safety and security of each filmmaker’s film, always keeping the filmmaker in mind. Basically, it is just as secure as a brick and mortar theater screening, only much better.
We made the decision to screen films online because of two reasons, first we understand that filmmakers around the world pour not only all of their time and heart into their work but also most of their money. Because of financial and time constraints independent filmmakers most times find it difficult to attend the screenings of their film. Now not only can the filmmaker attend, but all of their friends and family members can as well. In addition, the number of attendees to the festival is literally limitless giving the filmmaker much more exposure for their work.
In addition, you hear so much about the environment and global warming it got us thinking. When you realize how much power is used during the film fest, electricity for the building, natural gas for heat and the gasoline the people use to get to the fest it left one hell of a carbon footprint. By doing the whole festival online it actually helps cut down on greenhouse gasses.
The DCSF recognizes Filmmakers for outstanding achievements in their craft through creativity and imagination, while always paving the way and opening doors for the very talented Filmmakers world-wide.
CENTRAL-DOC
INTERNATIONAL
DOCUMENTAR FILM FESTIVAL

Un tema che cerca di rendere visibile ma soprattutto di rivendicare il ruolo delle popolazioni indigene attraverso i diversi documentari che compongono questa edizione e che sono destinati a ruotarsi su temi particolari come le origini, le tradizioni, il territorio, la lingua, i diritti, tra molti altri. Al CENTRAL-DOC ci aspettiamo documentari con storie che ci permettono di mettere in discussione e valorizzare ciò che ci rende ciò che siamo, da dove veniamo e quali sono le nostre radici.
Experimental Forum is an international performance, film and video art festival showcasing experimental film and artists’ moving image from new directors and innovative video artists from around the globe, with the third edition taking place in Los Angeles in November 2018. Our aim is to provide a supportive platform for the exciting and challenging work that is outside the scope of mainstream film festivals and art galleries.
We welcome experimental cinema pieces (abstract, narrative or documentary), video art works, essay films, artists’ moving image and media art, as well as documentary and narrative films that seek to expand, redefine or reconfigure the means and ends of their respective fields. Experimental Forum exists to provide access to, and develop audiences for, artists’ moving image work and is committed to engaging local audiences with new and/or unheard voices in film.
We are particularly interested in works made by early stage filmmakers and artists whose work is underrepresented. We provide a collaborative platform for moving image works made for the gallery and for the cinema with the aim of building a community across disciplinary and institutional faultlines.

**************************************************************************
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.
Amiamo l'horror e siamo molto entusiasti di guardare i tuoi film!
Il Bloody Horror International Film Festival (BHIFF) è un festival internazionale che cerca il meglio dell'horror indipendente (sia amatoriale che professionale).
Il festival è organizzato in due sessioni annuali. I film selezionati saranno riconosciuti e premiati in varie categorie.
BHIFF si è impegnata a mantenere basse le quote di iscrizione per dare a tutti la possibilità di partecipare, e offre un numero elevato di categorie di premi!
BHIFF ha sede in Canada, ma la sua giuria è ambientata in diverse parti del mondo e vanta una vasta esperienza nel campo dei film horror.
A partire da giugno 2025, BHIFF condividerà ora più contenuti sui social media! Pensiamo che questo sia un ottimo modo per promuovere i tuoi lavori e le tue creazioni affinché tutti possano vederli! Abbiamo il diritto di utilizzare qualsiasi materiale inviato e lo useremo per promuovere le tue fantastiche creazioni! Potremmo utilizzare trailer di film, poster e clip dei film presentati (anche film non vincitori)
Noi di BHIFF riteniamo che il lavoro di tutti sia un capolavoro! Abbiamo il difficile compito di scegliere le nostre selezioni ufficiali e i vincitori. Questo non significa che non abbiamo amato tutti i film. Non sempre siamo in grado di proiettare tutte le selezioni ufficiali e le menzioni d'onore perché abbiamo limiti di tempo nelle sedi.
Quindi, riteniamo che la condivisione sui social media sia un ottimo modo per far vedere tutti al lavoro!
Abbiamo stretto una collaborazione con i simpatici ragazzi di B-Movie TV!
B-Movie TV è un canale TV in diretta disponibile tramite Roku Box. B-Movies 24/7!
Ogni film che vincerà il premio Baddest B-Movie di BHIFF verrà proiettato esclusivamente LIVE sul canale B-Movie TV! Quanto è bello?!
Presto arriveranno molte altre cose interessanti!
Siamo sempre molto entusiasti di vedere le tue creazioni!

festival emblematico, tre programmatori decidono di mantenere la propria essenza trasferendo il festival a Gijón. È alla seconda edizione, quella del 2016, dove il festival si trasferisce nei centri comunali della città per sviluppare un festival incentrato sui cortometraggi e sulla musica. Da allora alle sezioni competitive (Sezione ufficiale, Sezione delle Asturie) E alle sezioni campione (Panorama Asturias e Mirada FICX) ci sono stati concerti che hanno dato lustro agli spazi culturali della città e che sono serviti a mettere il culmine di ogni proiezione.
Nomi come Marilia, Pablo Und Destruktion, Marem Ladson, Tiger and Diamond, David Feito... confermano l'alto livello
un musical che vive il festival e il suo aspetto locale e regionale.
Nel 2020 Laboral City of Culture si unisce a un nuovo schermo all'interno di CortoGijón, amplificando così le collaborazioni tra tutte le entità culturali della regione, iniziate nel 2017 con la sezione Mirada Ficx in collaborazione con il Festival del cinema di Gijón.
Festival del cortometraggio di Bucarest [BSFF]
Indipendente è la parola chiave per il Bucharest Short Film Festival [BSFF], in quanto è stato fondato da professionisti del cinema indipendente e si concentra su artisti indipendenti nel cinema, provenienti da tutto il mondo. Il Bucharest Short Film Festival mira a riconoscere, mostrare e diffondere i cortometraggi internazionali più professionali, innovativi e più interessanti, dando sempre la priorità ai cortometraggi indipendenti.
Il Bucharest Short Film Festival presenterà alcuni dei migliori cortometraggi internazionali in Narrativa, Animazione, Studente, Sperimentale, Documentario, Video Musicale e Diritti Umani. Prendiamo a cuore la mole di lavoro dedicata a ogni film. Pertanto, le regole del festival assicurano che ogni film venga rivisto almeno due volte e ben dibattuto dal nostro team. Alcuni dei film premiati saranno proiettati anche in altri festival cinematografici internazionali.
Gli artisti indipendenti e i loro cortometraggi incontreranno un pubblico effervescente e abbastanza esperto con cinema e festival cinematografici, garantendo networking di qualità e opportunità coinvolgenti, mentre i film selezionati saranno determinati da una giuria di esperti del settore.
Il Bucharest Short Film Festival sta costruendo una forte comunità di interesse attorno ai professionisti del cinema indipendente internazionale e agli amanti del cinema, nel cuore di una delle capitali emergenti più interessanti dell'arte e della cultura, una città che non dorme mai: Bucarest.
Il festival organizzerà proiezioni di film, precedute o seguite da domande e risposte degli artisti, o eventi collaterali di networking e, sicuramente, feste, che si svolgono tutte in vari palcoscenici convenzionali e non convenzionali intorno a Bucarest, come nei cinema, negli spazi aperti e persino nei teatri estivi. Bucarest, ne hai sentito parlare, alla fine: una città per giovani. Ben noto per cose diverse - come il soprannome di «Vecchia Parigi», nei suoi tempi borghesi, prima dei decenni del comunismo, o il più grande edificio parlamentare del mondo [e uno dei più grandi edifici di qualsiasi tipo], dai tempi del comunismo, la nuova architettura, o l'esplosiva scena artistica contemporanea, e anche il impressionanti comunità sotterranee di arte e musica e vita notturna, nei suoi tempi attuali.

SFG (Serile Filmului Gay / Gay Film Nights), the only LGBTQ International Film Festival in Romania, reaches its 14th edition. The event will take place in Cluj-Napoca, between the 8th and 17th of May 2020. The entry to all the screenings is free for the public.
Every year, the festival invests a lot of effort into bringing together international cinematographic productions with an LGBT+ theme, while also creating the opportunity for some other related events to take place under the scope of the festival. Among those cultural events, we mention video production workshops, photography and painting exhibitions, environmental actions, flash mobs, “Living Library”-type of workshops, “Show & Tell” exhibitions, social events intended to attract strong media exposure, as well as debates, lectures, and dialogues about the situation of LGBTQ people in Romania, and last but not least, events focused on health related aspects, such as the HIV infection rate among the LGBT+ community in the country.
While most initiatives in Romania that focused their attention on LGBTQ+ issues during the past few years have shifted their approach towards a more hands-on type of involvement, seeking to reduce the levels of social stigma and discrimination by accentuating the necessity of supporting LGBT+ rights, The SFG International Film Festival follows a different approach. Starting from the premise that mainstream media is flooded by rather incorrect and misleading messages, contaminated by obvious prejudice and stereotypes, this festival is meant to act as an outlet of communication by means of culture and openness towards society. This ambitious aim can be achieved by exposure to appropriate media content and by sending out correct messages through each of the events that make up the “spinal cord” of the official festival program.
Over the course of the past decade, The SFG International Film Festival has been constantly growing. From humble beginnings with only a few films projected in a couple of consecutive evenings to a mature festival, lasting an entire week, with several film screenings taking place simultaneously in different locations and a diverse array of related events.
We are proud to announce that with each edition, we are able to deliver a selection of over 50 selected films, pertaining to three categories: short films, feature films and documentaries. Each of these films places an emphasis on various aspects of the lives of LGBT people. It has often been the case that the directors or producers of the films are present at the screenings as special guests, engaging in an interesting conversation with the public, sometimes starting from the intention of finding similarities between both the positive and the negative aspects of LGBT life in the film’s country of origin and in Romania.
