NewFilmmakers NY is New York's longest running year round Film Festival. Throughout it's twenty-eight year run NewFilmmakers has provided a platform for first time and veteran filmmakers.
We have taken an exciting new direction with NewFilmmakers called NewFilmmakersPlus which will move our festival into the digital age and allow us to reach international audiences.
While theaters have been closed, our online audiences have greatly exceeded those in theaters. With NewFilmmakers Plus we have added the missing audience participation to our online screenings.
Now filmmakers, cast, and crew as well as audience members can create interactive video screening rooms while watching a film. Just by pushing the START A GROUPVIEW button to the right of the film they can invite up to six people to talk about the film in a video conference. It’s almost like watching side-by-side in real life — without having to share your popcorn.
In addition our films will now be available for one month and screenable any time of the day instead of only one night. This allows more people to see our films and makes it easier to set up a screening event with friends and colleagues. As requested we are switching to filmmaker hosted files utilizing unlisted YouTube links which will eliminate the need to transcode and to send us large files as well as giving filmmakers control over their film.
In today’s world online screenings give filmmakers worldwide audiences instead of limited local ones. With NewFilmmakers Plus filmmakers not only reach worldwide audiences but can interact with them as they would at a traditional theater.

MAN!FEST is a unique film festival in Ciudad Real, inspired by the figure of Jorge Manrique and his famous "Coplas." Born in 2025 with a clear social and humanistic mission, it offers an open and free space that seeks the cultural transformation of the city, promoting equality and cultural plurality from its core, inviting reflection through short and feature films committed to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as zero hunger, health, quality education, gender equality, clean water, or sustainable communities.
From the organizing committee of the ComHEP (Colombian Meeting on High Energy Physics), in collaboration with the research groups Hipertrópico, Mikropía, and Cuántico, we aim to foster a creative and critical dialogue between art, science, and technology, focusing on quantum mechanics as we commemorate its centennial anniversary.
The Quantum Arts Festival (QuArF) will encompass a one-day festival in November 2025, followed by a three-month exhibition in March 2026. The event will feature artistic installations, performances, lectures, and discussion spaces designed to encourage exchange, reflection, and the emergence of new collaborative possibilities at the intersection of these fields.
Our overarching goal is to promote transdisciplinary research, creation, and dialogue. We envision this festival and exhibition as a platform that will, over time, become a national point of convergence for individuals and communities engaged with art, physics, and quantum technologies—a space for the exploration of the aesthetic, philosophical, and cultural dimensions of the quantum paradigm.
