Welcome to FRANCE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL
Please read the entire content of this text carefully before submitting your project to the festival.
The Festival was created to celebrate the art of filmmaking and to honor the filmmakers who make it all possible.
The entire application process is done online through FilmFreeway.
Our festivals are not on IMDB by choice because being an independent and small festival, we were treated disrespectfully by IMDB, so we decided not to share our results with them.
We also have no social media anymore (like Facebook and Instagram).
How the Festival works:
In the first round, the jury members choose the films and scripts in a broader way. Selected films and screenplays will receive a link to the official selection Laurel.
In the second round, the jury members re-judge the selected films and scripts, analyzing each project in more detail and more rigorously.
They then decide the winners of each category as well as the jury's special awards.
Only the winners will be invited to the awards ceremony, where they will receive a trophy and certificate.
The trophies and certificates of the winners who do not attend the event cannot be sent by post or other shipping company. They will receive a digital version of the certificate only.
*** IMPORTANT INFORMATION ***
This Festival is presencial but in case of political instability, martial law, war, natural disaster, pandemic diseases, or any situation that put at risk the organization of the event and the people involved, automatically the Festival will be switched to ONLINE FESTIVAL.
All submitters will be notified about that on the notification date.
The winners will receive the online version of the certificate.
