The International Film Competition returns for 2015, calling on all film makers, established or aspiring, to submit their mental health films to this unique festival.

Now in its ninth year, the competition provides its award-winners with the opportunity to showcase their films to Festival audiences; winning films will be screened during the Festival in October 2015, and honoured at the International Film Awards ceremony.

Previous winning films have examined issues including ageing, childhood, equality, friendship, grief, music and sport, as well as specific mental health conditions. 2015 attracted entries from Scotland and the rest of the UK, Europe, Iran, Thailand, Malaysia, Australia, the USA and Canada. We will accept films of any length and made at any time, as long as they have not previosly been submitted to the Festival.

Award-winning work from the 2014 edition of the Festival included: joint Jury Prize winning films ‘Here One Day’, an emotional and candid film about the reverberations of suicide for those left behind; and ‘Today is Monday’, an observational film which provides an insightful window into ageing and dementia. Also amongst the winning films was ‘Sea Front’, a beautiful stop motion animation set during the First World War; and ‘Images of Bedlam’ which explores the interaction between mental health and artistic expression .

Kathy Leichter, jury prize winning film maker with ‘Here One Day’ travelled from New York to attend the ceremony:

“I was honored to be amongst such mental health heroes—the filmmakers and the festival staff that make the SMHAFF happen. The festival team was so kind and welcoming and fun to be with. They gave us filmmakers many chances to really get to know each other. By the time I left, just days later, we—the filmmakers and festival team-- were all friends. I left feeling like I was part of a powerful gang of mental health warriors, fanning out into the world with our stories to open hearts and minds and inspire change. Thank you SMHAFF!”

Last year's Hawaii Shorts was held at the Kahala Theater. The inaugural year took place at the Koko Marina 8 Theaters in Honolulu on the island of Oahu.

We believe that short form cinema and its creators should have their own premier film festival in Hawaii deserving similar recognition given to the feature film and its creators. The heart of the festival will be our quality and scope of extraordinary film programming.

A Associação do Festival de Cinema de Ayerbe lança esta segunda etapa do “Festival Internacional de Curtas-Metragens Villa de Ayerbe”.

Desde a 18ª edição, com novos membros na organização, queremos dar um grande impulso ao festival. Além da competição internacional, criamos uma nova seção dedicada à Ciência e Pesquisa para dar maior visibilidade ao evento e, a partir desta edição, os prêmios agora são chamados de “Prêmios CAJAL”.

Queremos continuar com a ideia de colaboração com cidades vizinhas.

Essa colaboração é realizada desta forma: Todos os curtas-metragens selecionados podem ser exibidos localmente em colaboração simultaneamente com o desenvolvimento do Festival e seus votos servirão para conceder o prêmio público.

Todo o dinheiro arrecadado pelo festival é doado para instituições sociais.

The Ânûû-rû Âboro International Film Festival is committed to echo the words and aspirations of the indigenous peoples around the world, with a particular focus on peoples from the Pacific region.

Terror Film Festival is a blood-chilling, alien-probing, international film festival that is unlike any other film festival, because we are designed specifically for filmmakers and screenwriters. TFF runs every October and being an online film festival allows us to remove all of your shackles from traditional venues. Problems like...capacity limits, late starts, rude staff, bad audio, lobby noise, projection snags, parking fees, ticket mishaps, etc...who needs them?! They are all designed to ruin YOUR screening. Well, no more!!

We have removed these problems, and with them now gone, TFF can offer you MORE people to see YOUR film (imagine 25 people vs 25 Million people). TFF increases the potential for you to gain more loyal fans. Plus, we offer the one and only, Claw Awards, for film and screenplay. And, our world-class screenwriting competition is a great feather in the cap for any screenwriter. We do our best to let you know that it is all about YOU. And, yes, we do accept Music Videos in any of the genres.

“TFF believes that it is through a legion of fans that a filmmaker or screenwriter can build a solid career in entertainment.”
~ Fel Angel, Filmmaker/Screenwriter/Festival Director/Terror Film Festival

Terror Film Festival was founded by filmmakers and screenwriters, and we know how difficult the road to success can be. That’s why we screen short films during the festival, but not the feature films. We only screen the feature film "trailers". The reason being that the integrity of your feature film must be kept intact if you expect to get a distribution deal. This way, your project can still be reviewed, you can still compete in the Claw Awards competition, and you can still have the opportunity to sell your film to fans during the festival. But, you do not suffer any interference with any distribution deal offers! Plus, All films and screenplays are reviewed by our selections committee, and all selected films and screenplays then become nominated for the coveted Claw Awards. Who knows, perhaps YOU will win the next Claw Award!

Terror Film Festival considers both short and feature length films and scripts (completed and Works-In-Progress), and we offer exposure, prestige, recognition, amazing exposure, and the Claw Awards. And we are completely driven by love of the craft. That's why TFF is committed to the filmmakers and screenwriters who bring great genre movies to the world. TFF is Halloween Cinematic!

Terror Film Festival is run like no other festival, because it is designed to help promote YOUR PROJECT, and more importantly, YOU. Our innovations are all designed to further YOUR career. Such as: Princess Horror, the first-ever film festival icon who is loved and followed by a legion of fans; The Claw Awards, the first-ever full-blown genre dedicated awards (heralded as "The Oscars of Indie Filmmaking"); Free Submitted Film Listings, the first and only listing of submitted films on a festival website in our massive stand alone section as an additional promotional vehicle for our creative artists as a thank you JUST FOR SUBMITTING A PROJECT.

Terror Film Festival also pioneered placing video interviews of our creative artists on our website. These are all unique marketing ideas that no other film festival in the world had ever explored before TFF. And we do it all because it brings more attention to YOU. TFF pioneered all of these concepts in 2006 to better serve our filmmakers and screenwriters, and we are proud to continue to offer them to our creative artists.

Thank You and Good Luck from Terror Film Festival.
