All screenplays must be submitted in English; those containing dialogue in another language must include an English translation.
Screenplays must be the original work of the entrant(s).
Adaptations or screenplays based on another work are allowed; however, it is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure that they have secured clearance to utilize any copyrighted materials or purchased the necessary film rights (“option”) from the copyright holder(s) to adapt the work.
All entrants retain complete and exclusive rights to their work.
