Début du Festival: 07 avril 2017      Fin du Festival: 23 avril 2017

The 6-th annual international independent short film festival “Cinema Perpetuum Mobile” is a non-profit cultural event. The Organizing committee was formed by the members of kinaklub.org community, which gathers enthusiasts and film-fans devoted to the values of continual and free cinema art.

Festival’s purposes:
To promote independent film-making. Short film is a low-budget, and thus, affordable democratic method of art expression. This allows to cover any actual and burning issue while staying laconic.

To support cultural diversity in cinema and discover new forms and methods in film art.
To assist in establishing and strengthening communication between film-makers and film societies in Belarus and around the world.
As reflected in its name, the idea of the festival is to touch upon eternal, perpetual subjects. The measure of how perpetual the subject is, is determined by it’s unquestionable importance and humanistic value. But also, with issues of this kind, a fresh and reasonable view is needed. That is why, both traditional and innovative approaches in interpretation of perpetual subjects are appreciated, as well as the whole spectrum of different cinematic forms — from silent to experimental.

Any interested person, who agrees with principles and ideas presented in the regulations, can become a participant of the festival, without regard to place of residence, age, color, height, weight, marital status and sexual orientation. The requirement for becoming a participant is a filled-in participant’s entry form and a completed film.
Festival screenings and selection of winners will take place simultaneously in Minsk, other locations in Belarus and on our planet as a whole, in April 2015, gathering more and more people who enjoy watching good films and are not indifferent to the problems of mankind.

The working languages of the festival are English, Belarusian, and Russian.
Participation in the festival is free of any charges.

The jury chooses the best work of the competition program in each section, as well as the best Belarusian film. Also, the list of “Audience choice” films is formed.

The Organizing committee relies on jury’s opinion and awards best films in the following nominations:

Perpetual motion
Perpetual love
Perpetual freedom
Perpetual fight
Perpetual art.

Film selection and screenings
Selection for competition programs is based on the marks given to the film at pre-screenings by the Organizing committee members.

Apart from the competition programs, the festival demonstrates out-of-competition thematic programs - these are composed of films highly assessed by the Organizing committee and the audience (volunteer film-fans who are not indifferent to the principles of kinaklub.org society). This year we are interested in such topics as gender, ecology, migration, and visual music (works as visual form of feelings, senses and moods).

The festival has a network structure, with screenings going simultaneously not only in different cities of Belarus, but also all around the world. The Organizing committee will prepare special program for screenings in different festival-friendly film societies with a total runtime of around 90 minutes.
