★ IMDb Qualifying Festival ★
Blackboard International Film Festival focus to celebrate Film Makers and Creators around the world, who take risk and do experiments in Film Making. We are an initiative to support and celebrate Film Makers around the world. We watch films, we write and talk about them. Every month we invite Film Makers to submit their Short, Feature, Documentary, and Experimental works.
We will organize a physical screening in our small city Elambachi-Payyanur, located in the northern part of Kerala, India.
MSF was created with the purpose of embracing, recognizing, and showcasing short film. We LOVE short films and discovered a need in the festival community for a new way to approach the short film. Films that slam an edgy topic in less than forty minutes are true masterpieces.
Of course, traditional and mainstream shorts are also valuable. Everyone loves a great comedy or an informative documentary. There are a myriad of genres that our team of industry professionals are eager to see and evaluate. Our reviewers have knowledge and experience in the genre of films they evaluate. They also understand the complexities and challenges associated with creating independent films.
In addition, films are screened by the public. These individuals are your target demographic. They give valuable insight to both the quality of your film and its potential marketability. When you win here, you are winning with the public.
