Arlington International Film Festival (AIFF) is an award winning organization with its mission being to foster appreciation for different cultures by exploring the lives of people around the globe through independent film. In 2014 AIFF was awarded the Community Recognition Award by the Arlington Martin Luther King Committee, in 2013 the Alan McClennen Community Arts Award by the Arlington Center for the Arts and the Gold Star Award by the Massachusetts Cultural Council. Through the founding of AIFF, the mission has also focused on enriching the community and broadening the view of our world and ourselves.

第16回バンガロール短編映画祭-27（BSFF-27）は単なる映画祭ではありません。映画のような声、創造性、そして独立したストーリーテリングを祝うものです。 2012年の設立以来、BSFFはインドや世界中の新進気鋭の映画製作者だけでなく、定評のある映画製作者の作品を発見、認め、促進することに専念してきました。
この映画祭は、インド映画の100周年を記念し、カンナダ語映画産業がインド映画の発展に計り知れない貢献をしたことに敬意を表して設立されました。 長年にわたり、BSFFは映画製作者が作品を上映し、業界の専門家とつながり、コラボレーション、配給、キャリアアップの機会を模索する活気に満ちたプラットフォームへと進化してきました。
私たちの使命は、新しい才能を奨励し、インディペンデント映画製作者に持続可能な収益機会を創出し、短編映画制作を商業的に存続可能なクリエイティブ産業に変える手助けをすることで、強力な短編映画文化を育むことです。 前回の BSFF-12 から BSFF-26 まで、多様な文化や国を代表する映画製作者が多数参加し、同映画祭はインド有数のショートシネマ・デスティネーションとしての地位を確立しました。
BSFF-27は、これまでで最も野心的なエディションとなることをお約束します。 世界中から集められた優れた作品セレクションに加え、映画祭では業界ワークショップ、マスタークラス、パネルディスカッション、ネットワーキングセッションの幅広いラインナップが用意され、映画製作者が旅のあらゆる段階で力を発揮できるようになっています。
今回のハイライトはミニボックスオフィス・フィルム・マーケットで、映画製作者にプロデューサー、配給会社、投資家、制作会社、特に長編映画制作への次のステップを踏み出そうとしている人々とつながるまたとない機会を提供します。
第16回バンガロール短編映画祭-27は、ワールドクラスの上映会、有意義な人脈作りの機会、業界での認知度、インディペンデント映画の活気に満ちた祭典など、映画製作の未来を形作るという取り組みを続けています。

ドレッド・セントラル：世界のベスト・ホラー・フェスティバル 2021
ラテンアメリカで最も古いジャンルの映画祭であるブエノスアイレス・ロホ・サングレは、「その耐久性ゆえに他のすべての映画祭から尊敬を集めている」とパネリストは語る。 「非常に厳選されており、奇妙なB級映画からハイブロウなホラー映画まで、あらゆるものがファンに愛されています。」

ホルヘ・ファラー監督の「バブル：ブラッド・ガッツ・アンド・シネマ：ザ・バーズ・ホラー映画祭、ブエノスアイレス大ヒッツ」
「ブエノスアイレス・ロホ・サングレ映画祭は、20年近く前からポルテーニョの観客にスリルを届けてきました。明らかに「人里離れた」映画を上映していて、世界のこちら側で従来の商用配給を見つけるのが難しい映画を上映しています。 映画祭は主にホラーに焦点を当てていますが、実際にはかなり多様な映画が上映されています。コメディーでほっそりした真夜中の映画から、ファンタジーの要素を取り入れた映画や、より容赦なく厳しいホラー映画まで、あらゆるものが上映されています。 誰にでも楽しめるものがあるんです。」

The Lahore International Children’s Film Festival is a project of The Little Art. It's an an annual event to showcase the best of local and international films made by, for or about children and young people. The Festival was started in 2008, and has completed its 9 seasons successfully and has reached to nearly 451,550 audiences.
Aiming at education as well as entertainment, the film festival is dedicated to promote the culture of film watching, media literacy and alternative learning among children and young people. Each year, the festival brings some of the best international films to Pakistan to promote, peace, creativity, social awareness, world cultures and the arts.
The Festival reaches to nearly 50,000 children and young people each year, from urban to rural areas. The festival defines “children and young people” as its primary beneficiaries, irrespective of their gender, social status, class, education or income level.
The festival has an inclusive approach to involve marginalized and less privileged children as its audience. We collaborate with NGOs and community organizations to show the world's best films to out-of-school and marginalized children across Pakistan.
2018 is the 10th season of the Festival and will take place in Lahore, Pakistan in October 2018.
Attention to all film talents: From 21 November 2017 until 31 January 2018, filmmakers will have the chance to apply for the LET’S CEE Short Film Competition 2018. Not only are two main prizes waiting to be won, moreover, ten finalists will receive an invitation to participate in the second edition of the LET’S CEE Talent Academy in Vienna!
Between 21 November 2017 and 31 January 2018, filmmakers up to the age of 35 from Central and Eastern Europe, the Caucasus region, Turkey and Austria will have the possibility to submit their short films to the Short Film Competition of the LET’S CEE Film Festival 2018.
However, filmmakers of all ages and from all over the world are welcome as well to send in thematically fitting contributions. Due to the festival’s geographical focus on CEE though, these short films will not be included in the main Short Film Competition, but will very well have the chance to win the Audience Award in the Short Film category and be screened at the festival in the section Short Films | Out of Competition. We furthermore cordially encourage international makers of virtual reality films, 3D productions and avant-garde pieces to apply as we will be offering these genres a stage at our festival as well.
The theme of the Short Film Competition 2018 is TOGETHER OR APART.
Great Britain voted for the Brexit last year and in doing so decided against a EU membership; most recently thousands of Catalan people went to the streets demanding independence from Spain; under the presidency of Donald Trump, the USA is seeking to withdraw from the Paris climate protection agreement and renegotiate various other commercial treaties – these are only three of many examples demonstrating the recent shift of the political mood in numerous countries. A growing migratory pressure, an increasing gap between the rich and poor, as well as justified and unsubstantiated fears – of the consequences of digitalisation, of the loss of jobs and stability and of social change – have discredited globalisation and encouraged a comeback of nationalist and isolationist tendencies, which seemed utterly unfathomable only a few years ago. Even on a national scale, societal cohesion appears to be threatened more and more. How does the growing division of society influence both the community and individuals? Will political agitation, hatred, egotism and greed for profit become the new normal? Well, the situation is critical, but not hopeless, neither on an international nor a national level. There are still representatives of the civil society who make no effort to surrender to the threatening eroding solidarity. Fortunately, there are numerous instances proving how people still advocate for the poor and disadvantaged with great optimism, dedication and empathy – people who rather pay attention to what we have in common instead of what keeps us apart.
The competition’s theme, TOGETHER OR APART, may be manifested in the submitted material in various manners and methods. Interpersonal aspects, such as family and relationship dramas, trials and tribulations, moments of success and happiness or the joint overcoming of challenges can be taken into account just as well as social, political, juridical and/or cultural matters. In other words: everything is possible, as long as it touches on the topic and is done well!
An advisory board chaired by the renowned Austrian-Iranian filmmakers Arash T. Riahi and Arman T. Riahi will choose the best contributions from the submissions for the LET’S CEE Short Film Competition. The short films, which will be screened out of competition, will be selected by the Bosnian-Dutch producer Denis Mujović and festival director Magdalena Żelasko.
After the presentation of the participating productions at the festival, an international jury will decide on the winner of the competing short films and, thus, who will be awarded the main prize – 1,500 Euro and a Urania statuette – at the Awards Ceremony in the Urania Cinema on 20 April 2018. The remaining short films presented during the festival will have, without exception, the chance to win the 1,500 Euro Audience Award in the category Short Film.
All filmmakers who will take part in the main Short Film Competition will additionally profit from their participation. At the expense of the festival, one of the involved filmmakers of each short film will be invited as an official guest*) to Vienna in order to present their work. Those persons will, furthermore, have the opportunity to join the second edition of the LET’S CEE Talent Academy.
15 remaining free seats for the Talent Academy will be filled by Out-of-Competition filmmakers. The most important items on the one-week Academy agenda include the attendance of LET’S CEE Master Classes and LET’S CEE Industry Days, the collaborative finalisation of a short film about Vienna, and the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to pitch a film idea to Raindance film festival director Elliot Grove (and win big!) at the Pitching Competition. Of course, all invited filmmakers will enjoy several Get-togethers, where they can get in touch with successful distributors, directors, producers, actors etc., exchange experiences and new ideas and thus strive to new projects and international collaborations. In order to enable as many filmmakers as possible to visit LET’S CEE and present their work to the festival audience, all participants of the section ‘Short Films | Out of Competition’ will receive free festival accreditations and discounts for the official hotel partner on request.
