Axolotl Film Festival of Mexico City with Cactus Films invite Mexican and international filmmakers residing in and outside the country to participate in its second edition to be be held from the 9th to the 13th of November, 2016 in the windows of different shops on the main streets of the Historical Center of Mexico City.
The shop windows are natural screens, generally disregarded, ready to present and recreate our lives and experiences in Mexico City. Commercial establishments are no longer meeting places for citizens and, conversely, are spaces that separate us. We believe that cinema can generate and promote a sense of community among the residents and the visitors of the city.
All participating short film and video need to reference, in their subject matter, characters, settings and/ or storyline, to Mexico City. The short films could have been produced in Mexico City, in other states or abroad.
ONLY GALICIAN SHORT FILMS
Short films only: under 30 minutes.
Submitted films must have been completed after 2017 and 2018 and they must also be Galician. This means they must have been either produced by companies or people from Galicia, directed by a Galician director.
Music videos must be Galician too. It means they must be either related to a song from a Galician musician or directed by a Galician author.

Mostra 2021: edição comemorativa
A edição comemorativa de 20 anos da Mostra de Cinema Infantil de Florianópolis será realizada de 16 a 24 de outubro. A data, segundo a coordenação do festival, foi escolhida pelo fato de Outubro ser o mês que homenageia as crianças e por permitir avaliação criteriosa do cenário pandêmico até lá.
A 20ª Mostra deve acontecer de forma híbrida: presencialmente (se for seguro), com mostras itinerantes para alunos de escolas públicas e comunidades da Grande Florianópolis – Santa Catarina, e virtualmente, em canal exclusivo da Mostra de Cinema Infantil e por uma plataforma de streaming a ser selecionada.
Além das mostras competitivas, oficinas e shows, o festival exibe curtas e longas-metragens convidados de vários países. Também realiza o Encontro Nacional de Cinema Infantil e Fórum de Cinema e Educação.
“Em 2020 tivemos um público durante o evento de 20 mil pessoas. Em 2021 queremos beneficiar mais pessoas, porque já tivemos a experiência do ano passado e agora temos mais ferramentas para alcançar um público bem maior”, afirma Luiza.
Em 2021, a Mostra comemora 20 anos e o clima é de celebração pela trajetória realizada.
“Nos últimos 20 anos colocamos o audiovisual brasileiro para crianças e jovens na pauta anualmente: todos os anos chamamos a atenção para que o país e o mercado do audiovisual prestasse atenção neste público. Não só por causa da formação de plateia, mas em nome do desenvolvimento da cidadania. Uma criança que vê na tela a cinematografia do seu país e de países diferentes terá uma consciência maior e mais crítica sobre tudo”, conclui Luiza.

-Finn Taylor, Diretor Libertado & 3 Time Director Sundance Film Festival

O Hamilton Theater é um local maravilhoso e Grant Slater organizou um festival de 5 estrelas com uma grande seleção de filmes, comida e cervejas locais. Este é um festival obrigatório que oferece mais do que apenas louros frívolos para seus cineastas... pode-se dizer que você deixa Hamilton com um novo grupo de amigos que oferecem uma perspectiva diferente de fazer e assistir filmes!”

“Foi uma honra absoluta fazer parte de um festival de cinema tão respeitado. Graças à ajuda, trabalho duro e compromisso da SBE minha carreira no Reino Unido passou de força para força. My Single, Worry atingiu o gráfico iTunes Download e atingiu o número 6.

É graças a pessoas como Grant acreditando em mim desde uma fase inicial do meu desenvolvimento que me ajudou a chegar onde estou agora.”
Some call it the “Lady Tickler,” “Lip Spinach,” or even, the “Cookie Duster.” Formally, it is known simply as “The Moustache.” In all of its forms it represents a man’s individuality and inner strength. Whether a full, furry and lustrous lip warmer or a smooth, sleek line of suave sophistication weaving it’s way across a dude’s upper lip, a man’s Moustache is an indication of his robust heart and the very soul of his being.
As part of the annual Facial Hair Fest—a celebration of facial hair in Portland, Maine—we are now looking for submissions for the International Moustache Film Festival (IMFF). Films will be screened in several venues throughout the week of March 21 through March 28, 2015,.
The Facial Hair Fest features all sorts of delightfully hairy good times, including the 8th annual Stache Pag (a moustache pageant), the Facial Hair Farmers Market, the Can-Am Beard and Moustache Competition, and of course, the IMFF. A number of IMFF screening blocks will be held, each dedicated to a different kind of stache. And despite the official name of the festival, beards are welcome. They are, after all, the less refined cousin to the moustache.
Films will be selected based on two criteria. First, we want good films. Second, we want films that highlight conspicuous, outstanding, and awesome facial hair. It's that simple.
Past years have seen the IMFF covered in the global press, including: Movie|Line, EW.com, The Guardian, BBC, Reuters, The Huffington Post, Boston.com, Yahoo.com, The Times of India, Buenos Aires Herald, DownEast Magazine, The Tribune, American Mustache Institute, The Beard Club and Stuff.Co.NZ.
Have a main character with a nice stache? Send us your film.
A documentary about hippies with beards? That's good to.
A film about Salvador Dali or Jesus? Totally qualifies.
A film about any of the following:
Hippies. Prophets. Musicians. Mountain Men. Cops. Robbers. Firemen. Old Fashioned Strong Men. Cowboys. NFL Quarterbacks. Private Investigators. Scientists. Political Leaders. Pirates. Canadians. Wizards. Dwarves. Dads. Cavemen. You. Your friends. Your enemies.
So send us some films, and please consider attending the International Moustache Film Festival!

SEE a Paris is a dedicated attempt of all the twelve South-East European countries to create a special contribution to the cultural unification of Europe as our common home. Dante Alighieri declared Paris to be the “universal spiritual heritage”; Jean Monnet said that if Europe was to be built again, it should definitely start with the culture, and Nicolas Bouvier wrote that “the Balkan is the heart of Europe” in his magnificent book “L’usage du monde”. Therefore, starting this April and following every spring in the future, this heart of Europe shall pulsate in Paris through the films of the SEE cinema.
The Council of the SEE FF in Paris is consisted of 15 members, 12 of which are directors of national film centers or film funds. The Council includes Yves Boisset- President d’honneur, who is a French director and eminent connoisseur of films from the SEE region, Jordan Plevnes- President and founder of the Festival and internationally reputed Macedonian writer, as well as Dragan Milinkovic Fimon- Festival Director, filmologist and festival consultant. President of the Jury is Mr. Max Azoulay, Director of ESRA Group..
The festival program includes feature films, documentaries, animated and short films from all 12 SEE countries. Every festival edition one of the regional festivals from SEE countries will have presentation during the SEE a Paris.

The Madeira Film Festival is non – competitive. Rather than present awards MFF offers delegates the status of ‘AMBASSADOR OF THE LAURISSILVA’ thus helping to preserve and create awareness of Madeira’s endemic Laurissilva forest.
The Madeira Film Festival organisation fervently believes there is no better place in the world to stage a film festival than on the piquant Island of Madeira and there is no better place on Madeira to stage a film festival than in glorious Reid’s Palace Hotel and the Municipal Theatre in Funchal.
The crux of the Madeira Film Festival is to pay homage to the resilience of Madeira’s endemic Laurissilva Forest by screening a slate of films which are expansive, unsettling and profound,films which will hopefully impinge upon the viewers imagination.
One of the most effective measures that can be implemented in order to raise awareness of the Laurissilva forest and subsequently it’s preservation is through the undisputed persuasive strength of audio- visual communication. The aspiration of the Madeira Film Festival is to become one of Europe’s foremost film festivals, by sheer virtue of location there exists an inherent capacity to attain this.
Digital Griffix film awards changed a bit over the years and is now an IMDB listed international online awards competition taking place each three months.
Each three months our jury determines the best films in each category. Note that we do NOT screen films online or onsite. The films are screened privately by the jury. Our goal is to help filmmakers take the next step in their career. Our jury is composed of award winning filmmakers who perfectly understand the hard work put in independent filmmaking !
