Here we go: the call for entries for the 6th edition of Ortometraggi Film Festival is finally open!

Ortometraggi is an international short film festival (including documentaries, animation, fiction and video art) whose aim is to raise awareness on issues related to environment, food, sustainability and the relationship between mankind and nature.

We are living the effects of climate change: how can we modify our destiny?
What we have to do to preserve our planet?

We will explore this topic from different points of view and languages, guaranteed by the four submission categories: fiction, documentary, animation and video art.

The 6th edition of Ortometraggi Film Festival will be held in 2024 in Turin, in Northern Italy. It will be designed to be enjoyed both in-person and online: together with the live show, the selected short films will be released for a limited period on a dedicated online platform. The directors will also be given the chance to take part in online interviews, in order to create an interactive event where audience and directors can talk about cinema, nature and sustainability.

We are designing an event that will not end within the dates of the festival but it will continue to provide to the selected movies the opportunity to be seen by as many people as possible over time through the creation of festival-related widespread events. The aim is to create - through directors' vision, cinema and art - a continuous dialogue on the subject.

Further informations about the event will soon be available on the web site and on the festival's social channels.

The jury will nominate three awards by categories:

- Best Short Documentary
- Best Fiction
- Best Animation

The jury will also establish a mention for "Best Art-Video".

For this sixth edition, the festival will also select thematic documentaries longer than 30 minutes, for the out of the competition Documentary - Full Length Film section.

The deadline to submit the short film is 23.59 pm on 16/03/2024.

The festival is thematic, then the films have to be coherent with the general theme: relationship between mankind and nature. For more information about the theme, please, visit the website or contact us.

The short films which are thematically and qualitatively appropriate will be admitted to the screening.

The competition will be divided into Animation, Fiction, Documentaries and Art Video.

Subtitles in English or in Italian are mandatory for non-Italian movies.
For each selected movie it’ll be requested:

- the file with english embedded subtitles
- the file without subtitles
- the .srt file

On the end of february 2024 it will be defined the jury, the prizes and the ultimate dates of Ortometraggi Film Festival 2024.
