VERTICAL FILM FESTIVAL

Point of U is on a mission: bringing together young content freaks – rookies & pros – to experiment and brainstorm on the future of cinema. Video making is no longer only limited to the hills of Hollywood, nor do you need flashy, expensive gear like the big production companies. You’ve got the DIY power, straight from your living room.

The mission of Point Of U competition is to find a new and fresh generation of directors, storytellers, creators & videographers, who are willing to enlighten the world with their unique Point of U. All young talent can apply and compete against each other.
