Festival Start: 06 November 2020      Festival Ende: 08 November 2020

Screen your film in Japan! We will subtitle your film in Japanese for you. Meet filmmakers from around the world! Win an award! We are the premium film festival in the city of Kitakyushu, a city like no other in Japan with a longstanding tradition of appreciation for the arts. We aim to bring the finest of the world's film to a city of 1,000,000 people. We are a three day festival by filmmakers for filmmakers at the city's finest venue surrounded by mountains and the sea. We will screen feature films and short films of all genres. With awards being distributed on the final day.

We are filmmakers ourselves, so we will consider any film submitted.

Please Note: Rising Sun International Film Festival (RSIFF) does not waive entry fees. RSIFF believes waiving entry fees hurts the integrity of the competition. The same rules and entry fees should apply to all applicants so no one film is favored over another. In a similar respect, RSIFF does not invite films to be in competition. Only films that are submitted will be considered for competition.

GENERAL ELIGIBILITY

Submissions must be accompanied by the applicable submission fee PER ENTRY and a completed online entry form. All films must be in English or Japanese or have English and/or Japanese subtitles at the time submitted.

Films must be submitted as an online streaming video via a participating submission platform (FilmFreeway), a password-protected streaming URL, or on DVD with NTSC or PAL formatting (please test before sending).

RSIFF screens films as digital files during the Festival and we require a Region Free or Region 2 DVD backup of your film. We NOT screen films on HD-CAM, or DCP. If you are unable or unwilling to provide us your film as a digital file for exhibition, DO NOT SUBMIT your film.

Films must have been completed after January 1, 2018. Films must be available for screening during the Rising Sun International Film Festival from November 6-8, 2020.

Films with Japanese distribution (obtained prior to being selected for RSIFF screening) or films that are available on streaming services in Japan like YouTube, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video etc. and/or publicly available online and/or have screened on Japanese network or cable television or distributed to theaters prior to the festival dates are also ineligible for competition.

Sunrise International Film Festival reserves the right in its sole discretion to reject or disqualify any ineligible entries, without a refund.

Films that are selected to screen at the Festival may not necessarily be selected to be “in competition” for awards purposes. Notifications regarding potential selection for competition status possibly may occur subsequent to notifications of acceptance for exhibition.
ORIGINALITY AND PERMISSIONS; INDEMNITY

Films must be the original work of the applicants. If a film is based upon another person’s life or upon a book or other underlying work, applicant(s) must secure any necessary rights to make such adaptations. However, it is not necessary to submit the adaptation rights agreements to the Festival. Neither the Festival nor its jurists investigates or attests to the authenticity of an applicant’s statement of authorship or rights secured. By entering the competition, you represent that you have secured all necessary rights.

Applicants are solely responsible for obtaining all necessary rights and permissions for third-party materials included in their films, including but not limited to music, trademarks, logos, copyrights, and other intellectual property rights. AFF expressly disclaims all liability or responsibility for any violations of the foregoing.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

We strongly encourage filmmakers to submit their film only after it is fully finished and will judge each submission as a completed work, whether it is or not. Once a film is entered, we will not update the submission with a more recent cut. Should the film be accepted to play during the Festival, the filmmaker will have the opportunity to supply the Festival with their most recent version. RSIFF reserves the right to switch the entry category or otherwise assign a category to fit programming needs and interests, and films will not be penalized for the original submission selection.

Once an entry payment has been received we cannot provide a refund. If a payment is disputed by an entrant for any reason, the entrant may be subject to any transaction fees or similar amounts incurred by Rising Sun International Film Festival in connection with the dispute.

You MUST include your physical address either in your entry or in your cover letter. Please do not submit a film without giving us your address, which we need for our records.

Payments are only accepted through Festhome.

RSIFF explicitly disclaims any liability or responsibility for any comments, notes, or opinions expressed about a submission, whether by AFF or by its volunteers.
