Here is the detailed information about our film festival:
Isolation & Suffering Short Videos Festival is the big cinema event dedicated to the fight against Coronavirus in the World + also to all the possible types of peoples’ sufferings and tragedies which humans may face during their lives. The main aim of the festival is to support people in their self-isolation during difficult times. At the same time the festival is also dedicated to internal human psychological isolation due to loneliness, illness or betrayal.
The festival is arranged by the same organisators who run the popular Moscow International Horror, Action and Fantastic Film Festival & Awards “DROP”. The goal of the festival is to entertain people in any situation of personal isolation or misunderstanding. Submitters can be both professional filmmakers, bloggers and ordinary amateur videographers.
Each submitter can send an unlimited number of videos/films.
