Short films are an important art form, requiring discipline and precision to be successful. They have been the springboard into full-length feature films for many contemporary award-winning film-makers, such as Roman Polanski, Jane Campion, James Ivory and Asif Kapadia. We will be looking for films that show imagination and creativity and reflect the cultural diversity and experiences of their own country or the Diaspora.
DEADLINE EXTENDED: Friday 18 June 2010 (no entries will be considered after this date)
