An international demonstration of music video is to celebrate and educate those who combine two powerful platforms of music and film. IMVA is an International Bi-Monthly IMDb Qualifying Competition (https://www.imdb.com/event/ev0025388/overview/) with Annual Screening Event
Combining image with music creates the long-awaited "integral cinema" that adds another dimension and power to visual messages. At the same time, it gives the second life music itself, which allows us to visualize images inspired by melodies, which are often lost in the subconscious.
As one of the youngest genres in the film industry, it is a video clip, an audiovisual work whose sound component is the whole or substantially a record of the artistic performance of a musical work.
The city of Budapest does not need recommendations. It is one of the largest places in the world where you can also listen to all kinds of music. Its diverse ethnic and cultural community has contributed to the establishment and maintenance of several musical genres. Budapest is also well known for its film culture. The awards ceremony will take place on 27 January 2023 in Tabán Art Cinema.

MALDITO FESTIVAL is a videopoetic contest held in the city of Albacete (Spain) since 2017.
The festival announces the International Videopoetry Contest and the International Poetic Film Showcase with the purpose of making visible two disciplines that, both together and separately, are much more distant and forgotten than we would like.
We, as lovers of poetry, image and the expressive possibilities of their symbiosis, propose a line of action, encouraging the approach of the general public to videopoetry and poetic films.
MALDITO seeks to vindicate these disciplines as art that connects people, that transmits feelings and promotes original or different ways of seeing the world, to try to be a grain of sand that makes any kind of visual or poetic art stop being marginal and cursed.
Sections:
- International Videopoetry Contest
- International Poetic Film Showcase
The One Shot Terrassa City of Film is a film festival that takes back the old Sequence Shot Contest organised in Terrassa between 2004 and 2012. It came last year again, and we're following the success. So this is the 11th Edition of the festival.
The particularity of this festival is that ONLY ACCEPTS ONE SHOT FILMS. What does it mean? As is well known, is about telling a story - at least 3 minutes long - in just a single shot, that is: no cutting or image editing.
In 2017, Terrassa was selected as a "Creative City of UNESCO in Film", a recognition that only 17 cities in the world have. This leads to recover a past that it is what brought us this present.
The festival will take place during the week from November 27th to 29rd 2025.
To have some historical background, it all started in 1967 when Societat Cultural Joventut Terrassenca - known in Terrassa as "Coro vell" - organized the "Rotllo" film competition with this same idea. Now, Societat Coro Vell, with the support of the Terrassa Audio-visual Board and within the activities of the Terrassa City of Film UNESCO, as well as with the participation of those companies and people who collaborate on this event, wants to recover this current year the tenth edition of the "Concurs del Pla Seqüència", from now called "One Shot - Terrassa City of Film".
For any doubt or concern contact us at oneshot@oneshot.cat.
The ZAFIC Festival 2025 call will have 6 lines of development that will be called "Capsules", which will be aimed at 5 different industries with the objective of articulating Cinematography and audiovisual, with new creators and cultural managers.

MARCO DEL CONCURSO. TEMA AMPLIADO
La Asociación de personas enfermas y trasplantadas de corazón y pulmón de Euskadi “Atcore” nace en 1996 con el objeto de sensibilizar a la sociedad a favor de la donación de órganos y atender a personas enfermas y trasplantadas, así como a sus familiares. De esta forma, hemos conseguido que en Euskadi tengamos una red que nos ayude a poder dar voz y visibilizar el tema de la donación.
Entendemos que cuando alguien nos habla de donaciones de órganos, éstas van asociadas directamente con accidentes, defunciones, etc… Sin embargo, nosotros queremos lanzar una reflexión. Esta es que para muchas familias las donaciones son regalos de tiempo, regalos de vida de personas que por muy diferentes casuísticas no van a poder seguir utilizándolos. Regalos que son el mayor reflejo de la solidaridad humana.
En una sociedad como la nuestra en la que la solidaridad se ve en cualquier rincón (Banco de alimentos, asociaciones de carácter social de todo tipo, grupos de autoayuda, etc…), la pandemia sanitaria que hemos vivido durante dos años: dos largos años, nos ha dejado muy tocados a todas y todos y, sobre todo, ha dejado aparcadas muchas de las realidades sociales y de salud que seguimos sufriendo.
En esta sociedad de la que hablábamos, abierta cada día más a la información a través de Internet y de las redes sociales, somos conscientes que las campañas de sensibilización pro-donación de órganos; es decir, a favor de estas realidades sociosanitarias, deben tener reflejo en las redes. Y por qué no decirlo, acercarnos a través de ellas a un colectivo que bien no utiliza otro sistema de comunicación o recepción de información, o bien no se ha parado a reflexionar sobre este tema: las personas jóvenes.
Parece que la donación de órganos es cuestión de “personas mayores”. Pues según el Registro Mundial de trasplantes, la fuente más veraz a nivel mundial, el estado español sigue manteniendo el timón al frente de la Unión Europea en cuanto a donaciones. Actualmente hay más de cien mil personas esperando una donación, entre ellos muchos jóvenes y niños.
Está analizado que cada persona que dona puede salvar 8 vidas y mejorar más de cincuenta. Y este es el punto de partida de este concurso. La idea es que podáis plasmar, a través de las imágenes, a través de un corto de menos de 2 minutos, una historia que nos hable de solidaridad, de regalo, de volver a comenzar, de esperanza. Un alegato inequívoco a favor de la donación de órganos. Porque donar es regalar vida.
LEHIAKETAREN ESPARRUA. GAI ZABALDUA
Gaixoen eta bihotz eta biriketako transplantatuen Euskadiko Elkartea, Atcore, 1996an sortu zen, gizartea organoak ematearen alde sentsibilizatzeko eta gaixorik eta transplantatuta dauden pertsonak eta haien senideak artatzeko. Horrela, Euskadin sare bat izatea lortu dugu, ahotsa ematen eta dohaintzaren gaia ikusarazten lagunduko diguna.
Ulertzen dugu norbaitek organo-emateei buruz hitz egiten digunean, horiek istripuekin, heriotzekin eta abarrekin lotura zuzena dutela. Guk, ordea, hausnarketa bat egin nahi dugu. Izan ere, familia askorentzat dohaintzak denbora-opariak dira, pertsonen bizitza-opariak, eta, hainbat kasuistika direla medio, ezingo dituzte erabiltzen jarraitu. Giza elkartasunaren isla handiena diren opariak.
Gurea bezalako gizarte batean, zeinetan elkartasuna edozein txokotan ikusten den (elikagaien bankua, mota guztietako gizarte-elkarteak, autolaguntza-taldeak, etab.), bi urtez bizi izan dugun osasun-pandemiak: bi urte luzez, oso ukituta utzi gaitu guztiok, eta, batez ere, bazter utzi ditu jasaten jarraitzen dugun gizarte- eta osasun-errealitate asko.
Hitz egiten ari ginen gizarte honetan, gero eta gehiago Internet eta sare sozialen bidezko informaziora irekita, jakin badakigu organoak ematearen aldeko sentsibilizazio-kanpainek, hau da, errealitate soziosanitario horien aldeko kanpainek, isla izan behar dutela sareetan. Eta zergatik ez esan, horien bidez beste komunikazio-sistemarik edo informazioa jasotzeko sistemarik erabiltzen ez duen kolektibo batengana hurbiltzea, edo gai horri buruz hausnartzen gelditu ez den kolektibo batengana hurbiltzea: gazteengana.
Badirudi organoak ematea adineko pertsonen kontua dela. Izan ere, Transplanteen Munduko Erregistroaren arabera (mundu mailako iturririk egiazkoena), Espainiako estatuak lema izaten jarraitzen du Europar Batasuneko buru, dohaintzei dagokienez. Gaur egun ehun mila pertsona baino gehiago daude dohaintza baten zain, horien artean gazte eta haur asko.
Aztertzen ari gara dohaintza egiten duen pertsona bakoitzak 8 bizitza salba ditzakeela eta berrogeita hamar baino gehiago hobetu. Eta hau da lehiaketa honen abiapuntua. 2 minutu baino gutxiagoko film labur baten bidez, irudien bidez, elkartasunaz, opariaz, berriz hasteaz, itxaropenaz hitz egingo digun istorio bat islatu ahal izatea da asmoa. Organoak ematearen aldeko alegatu argia. Dohaintza bizitza oparitzea delako.
Terror in the Bay Fantastic Film Festival aims to bring genre cinema closer to the residents of the city and spread its attractions to the world.
Fantastic and horror movies have a cathartic function, when we watch a movie we experience the experiences of the characters without fear of suffering its effects. Violent movies, catastrophic scenarios, terror, extreme survival... provoke an emotional discharge that sometimes prepares us to face our real life.

A PLACE FULL OF HISTORY, LOVED BY ARTISTS
A place steeped in history, which belonged to the greatest families of the Italian papal aristocracy (Orsini, Colonna, Albani), it retains a strong tradition and in its recent history was the creative residence of world-famous Italian artists such as PierPaolo Pasolini, who lived in the of Chia, or Luigi Pirandello who also dedicated a poem to the beech forest of Soriano nel Cimino, from which he was greatly entranced.

We are looking for artists who care about their work, who love the creative process and who don't make art out of vanity.
For more than a decade, community film festivals have emerged in Colombia, as scenarios that have made possible the exhibition of images and the meeting of different actors linked to community, local and independent cinema.
With this objective in 2016, the Commune Film Festival 6 (FECICO 6) was born in the city of Medellín, which is recognized as a neighborhood festival that seeks to offer the population meetings around independent, non-commercial and community cinema, mainly from Latin America; in order to generate reflections and bets for the transformation of social, cultural and political realities.
Amagi is the annual invitation that the FECICO6 expands to all the territories of the world, mainly in Latin America (Abya Yala Aframerindia) that has the intention of promoting and disseminating productions of groups, organizations and people who find in the audiovisual a possibility to express their disagreements and proposals for social, political, cultural and creative transformation. The exhibition of the platform will be within the framework of the VII version of the Comuna 6 Film Festival, which will take place from November 11 to December 3, 2022.

BAKUNAWA FEST [Fantastic Film, Art + Music] is the first fantastic & genre-based film, art & music festival based in The Philippines and ran by volunteer filmmakers and artists. Bakunawa is a dragon-like creature in Philippine mythology that devoured moons. Because we are a genre-bending film fest, we want to flip the Bakunawa's role and we want it to instead symbolize the creative monsters inside us.
Because we've had a rough and tough year, our 11th edition will screen films during the 2024-2025 seasons and will have several screenings starting in December of 2024, culminating to May of 2025. Bakunawa Fest runs annually in one season - spread in fourth months becoming a hybrid festival resulting from the pandemic lockdowns.
Bakunawa was initially created with this principle: "new visions, new voices". We still stand by this principle as we continue to program young promising filmmakers, artists & musicians who either have no access to expensive workshops and may not have the name recognition to be programmed in festivals. Since our third edition, we have included a section that screens curated local and international selected films mainly for educational purposes. Most of our Bakunawa Fest's film camps are done as outreach programs/workshops and are mostly free. Here our participants are scholars paid for by the festival and its partners usually hosted by different cities/municipalities in the Philippines.
[ Please note that, since we are an artist and volunteer-ran filmfest, we can't fund filmmakers to come physically and we don't pay screening fees. ]
We are a fantastic film fest. Our festival is interested in: Horror or Thriller Films / Sci-Fi, Fantasy or Adventure / Fantastic-themed Experimental Films, New Media, Expanded Cinema / Genre-Bending Films / Fantastic-themed Music Videos / Fantastic-themed Documentaries / Contemporary Art / Photography.
