12th Dada Saheb Phalke Film Festival-22, Delhi NCR, Índia

Celebrando a excelência no cinema


O Dada Saheb Phalke Film Festival é um festival de cinema independente sem fins lucrativos, não comercial e da Índia, estabelecido no ano de 2011 em Delhi NCR com a missão de celebrar o cinema e o trabalho de aspirantes, jovens, independentes e profissionais cineastas. O festival é importante para a indústria cinematográfica indiana, pois é organizado em 30 de abril de cada ano para marcar o aniversário de nascimento do Late.Shri. Dhundiraj Govind Phalke, que é considerado o pai do Indian Cinema e com carinho lembrado como Dada Saheb Phalke pela fraternidade cinematográfica em toda a Índia e globo. Seu objetivo é reconhecer o cinema iluminador, divertido e progressivo da nova era de cineastas jovens e experientes.

Nos últimos anos, o festival ganha reputação e considerado como um dos mais prestigiados festivais da Índia. O festival cresce ao longo dos anos e atrai cineastas de toda a Índia e mais de 90 nações em todo o mundo. O festival tem seções para longas-metragens, curtas-metragens, documentários, animações, videoclipes e filmes publicitários. O festival premia os cineastas em categorias de produção, criatividade, música e performance.

12º Festival de Cinema Dada Saheb Phalke-2022 visa celebrar a excelência no cinema. Dada Saheb Phalke iniciou o movimento do cinema na Índia no sentido real e ele é o símbolo da excelência. Sua contribuição para o cinema indiano é inparalela. Hoje, o cinema indiano está tocando o céu em termos de conteúdo e tecnologia, mas vale a pena mencionar que foi iniciado pela lendária Dada Saheb Phalke e estamos apenas carregando isso adiante.

Fundada pela Educationexpo TV, uma empresa líder em pesquisa e branding de entretenimento e gerenciada pelo Miniboxoffice, Dada Saheb Phalke Film Festival-22 oferece chance aos cineastas mostrarem sua criatividade. Enquanto o festival está aberto a cineastas de todas as idades, sentimos que, assim como é imperativo que apoiemos e incentivamos a participação de membros da comunidade de cinema e profissionais, também é importante que encontremos e cultivemos os futuros membros da indústria do entretenimento.

La muestra internacional de cortometrajes Video/Jujuy/Cortos é um espaço de projeção audiovisual NÃO competitivo, sem fins lucrativos, aberto e gratuito organizado anualmente pela Wayruro Comunicación Popular.
O objetivo do Festival é promover a produção e divulgação de audiovisuais como meio de expressão e comunicação.
Este espaço artístico/cultural gratuito nasceu em 2002. Desde o início, o festival estabeleceu relações com escolas, organizações sociais, de bairro, de direitos humanos e artísticas, centros de atividades juvenis e organizações de povos nativos, tentando ser permeável às necessidades e demandas do meio, tanto em termos de temas quanto de gêneros, resultando em um programa variado que vai do vídeo social à animação, incluindo ficção e audiovisuais experimentais.
Como espaço e local de reflexão e ponto de encontro de criadores, profissionais renomados ministram workshops e palestras, buscando fornecer informações e treinamentos, gratuitamente, aos interessados. Este ano, a exposição foca esse espaço em pensar sobre a situação audiovisual, trabalhar e pensar em redes e consolidar a produção audiovisual comunitária e popular.

NOFI is a multi stage International Festival of New and Original Films. It was founded by the Center of American New Cinema and Arts (CANCA). The preliminary stages take place in Russia, Sweden and Armenia while the final stage is taking place in USA (Los Angeles). Each year an estimated 1000 independent and student films participate in the NOFI festivals from 60 countries. We have representatives in 10 countries including USA, Russia, Sweden, Armenia, Belarus, UK,Belgium, Holland, Arab Emirates and Philippines.

The goal of the NOFI festivals is to find and invite talented film directors to NOFI film studying and producing programs for shooting their films with the help of our sponsors and grants. We then represent, promote and will try to sell the best films from NOFI in the American Film Market, Cannes film market, Amazon, Netflix, Hulu and other markets. Winning films can also participate in NOFI sister’s film festivals in Korea, Poland, Germany, Estonia, Russia and Armenia. The winners from each category and diplomas of honor can have the opportunity to show their films (edited versions) at our NOFI film festival on YouTube channel. The best actors from the best films can join our “Accent” International Talent Management. Also the trailers of the awarded films will be in our web site for years, providing more exposure. Our festival helps expose new and emerging directors and actors. NOFI festivals give them an opportunity to present their names in motion pictures studios and be discovered in the film industry worldwide. NOFI is designed to showcase innovative work by new filmmakers who may (or may not) have been overlooked by other festivals. We organize forums and round tables with filmmakers during the NOFI festivals to understand their needs, help solve common problems with film production and discuss their future projects. Our slogan is- “Indie filmmakers without borders.” Many celebrities and representatives from film studios have attended screenings and award ceremonies of NOFI festivals. 

O Festival Internacional de Cinema de Lésbicas, Gays, Bissexuais, Transgêneros e Intersexuais (Cinema Movilh) é exibido nos maiores e mais conhecidos documentários do Chile, que acontecem todos os anos em Santiago e depois percorrem regiões de diversidade sexual. Obras locais ou estrangeiras podem ser projetadas no Festival após postulação na forma indicada nestas regras.

It´s the way of calling: NOVMA (non violence & Enviroment Film Festival)

The first edition of the NOVMA FILM FESTIVAL took place on october 2012.

Welcome the 2nd annual FilmQuest Festival!

FIlmQuest celebrates the majesty of genre filmmaking such as fantasy, horror, sci-fi, and the beyond. Awarding filmmakers in 2014 with over $30,000 in awards and prizes, including the coveted Cthulhu Trophy, the festival launched with great praise and fanfare . FilmQuest has been designed specifically to cater to the empowerment of the filmmaker through various events, awards, swag, connections, and more.

In creating the festival, we thought long and hard about what it is that makes a festival great. We asked ourselves the tough questions. What we’ve come up with is, we believe, a festival experience that is the kind most filmmakers dream about.

Major industry professionals took part in the first Grand Jury, including Doug Jones (Hellboy, Pan's Labyrinth, Silver Surfer, Hocus Pocus), Dameon Clarke (Borderlands 2, Dragonball Z), and Amrita Acharia (Game of Thrones). The New York Times bestselling author, David Farland, is already confirmed for the 2015 Grand Jury. The award juries will award our filmmakers in over 25 individual categories. Our selection committee is also made up of a group of industry professionals from various fields, such as directors, actors, producers, professors, writers, animators, casting directors, and more.

FilmQuest itself is the film festival branch of FantasyCon, a convention that puts the fantasy experience of the patrons first. It is an interactive convention, where dragons, magic and battle literally comes to life. Just as FantasyCon is a celebration of all things Fantasy, from horror to adventure, so is FilmQuest a celebration of all things Fantastic in film.

We will also be hosting parties, events, panels and more!

We encourage you to explore our website (www.filmquestfestival.com) for new information and updates as it comes, including who is on the Grand Jury, the Selection Committee, the Official Selections, venues, and more. As the year progresses, we'll be updating our website and this page with more info on what to expect, the celebrities who will be involved with FilmQuest, the official dates (2015 FilmQuest will take place in July, 2015), and more.

Prepare for Fantastic.

The International TV Festival Bar is held in the last week of October in the town of Bar lying on the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea in Montenegro, one of the six former Yugoslav republics.
The Festival was started in 1994. It has endeavoured to preserve the loosened ties among people and nations of what used to be their common homeland, the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, and indicate that their future cooperation in the media and openness to the world is inevitable.
The first festival took place in 1995. After one year's break in 1998, it continued gathering more and more television centres from renowned European and world centres, as well as from all the republics of former Yugoslavia.
The Festival is held in the last week of October. As of 2001, the Festival (MEDIACOM Sector) also organizes events of different content and purpose, such as Meetings of Television Stations of South East Europe, and other similar events.

HERITAGE FILM FESTIVAL

In order to preserve India’s finest cultural legacies, aadhar initiated The Heritage Film Festival to explore India’s glorious heritage through audiovisual media. The Heritage Film Festival is a project by aadhar to spread awareness and educate public about India’s heritage through films

The Heritage Film Festival is not just an EVENT... but a CAUSE with the aim to REVIVE the dying traditional art forms,

it a Movement to embellish & enrich the Rich Heritage of India...!

Overall aim of the Heritage Film Festival (HFF) is to encourage film submissions, organize film making projects, review film competitions, and screen films to different audiences.

The Maryland International Kids FilmFest is an outgrowth of the children's programming at the annual Frederick Film Festival -The F3- held each year in June.

Since the beginning, the F3 has been dedicated to providing not only a unique film-going experience in the region by providing premiere films as well as films not likely to be screened in the area, but also providing children's programming on Saturday mornings.

This portion of the F3's programming was so popular that the festival organizers felt an entire festival of great film should not just be reserved for adults, but be provided for the younger set as well. Often, films and programs aimed at children seem...childish. Not challenging. Safe. And far too often, not entertaining. Especially those constructed to be long commericals in the guise of young people's programming.

The Maryland International Kids FilmFest is committed to bring high-quality, challenging, and, most importantly, ENTERTAINING movie programing...in the form of short films as well as feature length films...to the state. And we can pretty much guarantee that you'll not see any film with a fast-food restaurant tie-in product.

Other film events during the MIKFF will highlight the venue itself. The Weinberg Center for the Arts is an historic building and a jewel valued by the entire state and the festival is proud to have the opportunity to show movies in one of the grandest movie palaces in the area. Take some time to walk around the building while you're here and discover what an extraordinary thing going to the movies once was.
