Ars Independent Festival 2019 will be the 9th multimedia festival of film, animation, video games and music videos. The upcoming edition will take place in Katowice, between the 24th and 29th of September 2019.
The festival is searching for what’s cool in young, debuting, contemporary audio-visual culture. It’s not afraid to watch videos with 27 views on YouTube, it’s missing the “least popular” sorting option on itch.io and considers Festival Scope Pro decidedly “too mainstream”.
The heart of the festival are four international competitions, in which the audience decides about the awarding of prizes. The Black Horse of Film (feature films from all over the world) and the Black Horse of Animation (short features) present the cinematographic debuts by directors from the entire world, often as their Polish premieres. The Black Horse of Video Games and the Black Horse of Music Video are devoted to new games and music videos.
Additionally, every year festivalgoers are treated to: screenings of films, animations and music videos, video game exhibitions, virtual reality and new technologies, discussion panels and Q&As with artists, concerts, live acts and musical afterparties.
In previous years, the festival hosted a variety of artists from all over the world, including Béla Tarr, Nina Menkes, Phil Mulloy, Laila Pakalnina, Bruce LaBruce, Tami Tamaki, Stephen „M.O.O.N.” Gilarde, Jakuba Dvorský, Mariola Brillowska, Piotr Dumała, Arkadiusz Jakubik, Bodo Kox, Łukasz Barczyk, Sos Sosowski, Wiktor Stribog and Władysław Komendarek.
The event is organized by the culture institution Katowice the City of Gardens and the City of Katowice.

The Diabolique International Film Festival takes place September 19-20, 2014 in Bloomington, Indiana for the premiere showcase of independent genre cinema, featuring horror, sci-fi, fantasy and animation.
The Diabolique International Film Festival began more than 8 years ago. Since 2007 we have screened over 250 films from more than a dozen countries, and from almost every state in the US. We’ve had the honor of hosting visiting filmmakers from around the country, and from around the world. Over the years, we have gained a reputation as a festival that truly values independent genre films and the people who make them. Many of the movies from our past festivals have been picked up by major distributors, and our event has provided numerous networking opportunities.
As a result, we’ve been featured in a variety of national publications, having been recognized by MovieMaker Magazine as one of the “Top 25 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee,” and one of the “13 Horror Film Festivals to Die For.”
The new year brings some big changes to the festival, including a new name, new venue, and new sponsors. We’re particularly excited to announce our partnership with one of the fastest growing genre publications in the world, Diabolique Magazine. The publishers of Diabolique bring their considerable industry connections and marketing reach to the table in a way that we hope will propel this festival forward for many years to come.
In addition to a name change, we’re also excited to announce our new venue, IU Cinema on the Indiana University campus. With state-of-the-art 2K and 4K digital projection (as well as 16mm and 35mm film projection) IU Cinema offers the highest possible projection quality.
True to David Reuben's classic book "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex * But Were Afraid to Ask " we love movies that give us new insights on topics like sexual liberation, erotic fantasies, BDSM, sexual shame, cultural sexual diffrences, the "new" prudery, pornography, the impact of the internet porn on our sexuality and sex activism. The discourse with the filmmakers and actors is very important to us. Therefore we try to invite as many protagonists and directors as possible to our festival and thus offer the audience the opportunity for a dialogue.
FARO 1540 - L'Association pour la défense et la promotion du patrimoine environnemental et culturel de Faro, après le succès des dernières éditions de FARCUME - Festival international du court métrage de Faro, organise la 11e édition de ce festival qui se tiendra dans la ville de Faro du 26 au 28 septembre 2025.
Cette 15e édition de FARCUME vise à exposer et à promouvoir des œuvres de la section des courts métrages d'une durée maximale de 18 minutes, réparties en trois catégories : animation, documentaire et fiction.
À ce festival, tous les citoyens nationaux et étrangers peuvent participer, individuellement ou en groupe, simplement en respectant les stipulations du règlement, en remplissant un formulaire d'inscription et en envoyant leurs œuvres à l'organisation avant le 11 juillet 2025, sous réserve de présélection.
L'objectif principal de ce festival reste le même : faire connaître et lancer de nouveaux talents ainsi que promouvoir auprès du public les excellentes œuvres réalisées dans ce domaine mais qui n'ont pas toujours la promotion souhaitée et méritée.
En d'autres termes, FARCUME, dans un environnement informel, de bonne humeur et dans une atmosphère détendue, entend récompenser et reconnaître le dévouement, l'engagement, la créativité et le mérite des réalisateurs, des acteurs et des équipes techniques qui, avec des moyens modestes, peuvent développer des œuvres de grande qualité.
Compte tenu des principes et des objectifs de « FARO 1540 », qui a même le statut d'ONG (organisation environnementale non gouvernementale), le festival continuera de faire preuve d'une grande préoccupation environnementale et d'inciter les participants à ne pas présenter de courts métrages revendiquant ou encourageant le manque de respect pour l'environnement, les inégalités en matière de droits humains ou la maltraitance des animaux. Un plan de gestion environnementale spécifiquement « conçu » pour cet événement sera développé plus avant afin de garantir l'optimisation des ressources nécessaires à la promotion et à la réalisation de l'événement et à la gestion des déchets générés.
Since its 1st edition in Barcelos in 2008, the ART&TUR Festival has effectively fulfilled its mission of making known to the world the best audiovisual productions in Portugal and in the world.
As a forum for sharing experiences, the ART&TUR Festival has achieved a high international recognition, thanks to the quality and quantity of films that it distinguishes annually, as well as its integration into a worldwide network of similar festivals: CIFFT (International Committee of Tourism Film Festivals) that annually elects the best tourism film worldwide, among all the films that travel the international circuit of 16 festivals.
From 2018, ART&TUR Film Festival rights were transferred from APTUR to Centro de Portugal Film Commission (CPFC). Associated to this change, and thanks to an agreement between the CPFC and the Regional Tourism Entity of Center of Portugal, the ART&TUR Festival will now be held in the Central Region, roaming through the various municipalities of the Center of Portugal.
There are 2 different competitions for you: TOURFILM & DOC
Worldwide entries are invited: Advertising, Promotional Films, Animation, Independent Travel Videos, Documentaries, Webdocs and TV Programmes
