Международный этнографический кинофестиваль ОКО ()

Festival start: 12 September 2020      Festival end: 19 September 2020

OKO is a festival that unites filmmakers and film buffs; it is a feast of ethnographic and anthropological documentary (although not exclusively) cinema, where you can see and feel the daily heartbeat of small and large nations, communities, dwellers of villages and small towns. It is also a platform where filmmakers, folklorists, and ethnographers can get to know each other better, share ideas and, possibly, come up with future mutual projects.
There will be no red carpet; nevertheless, there will be awards and prizes.

Documentary films with ethnographic and anthropological values are accepted. They must correspond to the main subjects of the Contest:


1. A film about the traditional costume.

2. A film about the calendar-ritual event.

3. A film about the ceremony of the family-household cycle.

4. Master-class on folk craft or traditional dishes.

5. Everything related to ethnography and folklore, and from a
director's point of view, could fit into this genre.

Applications and movies are accepted online. Online screeners (closed links for downloading or online screeners on Vimeo, YouTube, etc.) should be submitted. English subtitles will be required for the screenings.

No restrictions on the date of manufacture.

Any interested person (individual authors and groups of authors) who submitted all materials in accordance with the terms of the Contest shall be entitled to take part in the Contest.
