In the spirit of Halloween, we want our next showcase to focus on the genres of fantasy/horror/mystery/experimental films. Our aim is to centre Indigenous voices in order to ensure an equal distribution of screen time. Of course, we are also open to Canadian and international film alike. Submit your fantasy, horror, mystery, thriller, or experimental.

Join us for an evening of film under the moonlit skies in Canada's Capital in Snider Plaza on Bank Street downtown Ottawa, just a few blocks from Parliament Hill on October 13th. Gates open at 7pm!

Please submitted your film by September 28th, 2023.
We will be making final selection and announcing October 2nd 2023.

Please submit your film with English subtitles.
