Riga Pasaules Film Festival 2021: Anthropological Time
***********************************
RESCHEDULED DATE
Unfortunately for the second year running we have had to postpone the festival, for obvious reasons. As with last year we would prefer to hold and in-person event than go online or cancel the festival, and so the only option is to put the festival date back to September 16th to 19th 2021.
We hope that by doing this we have a better chance of having a fuller, international, festival with as many visitors as possible.

Call For Films
The curating team of the Riga Pasaules Film Festival (RPFF) is calling for submissions that address cinema’s relationship to the temporal experience. We are looking for works of a broad anthropological persuasion that, through their content and form, consider ways in which imaginaries and practices of time are rendered and generated through cinema. For example, we are interested in works that represent time-based events; that generate their own temporal signatures; and offer a creative take on different temporal perspectives.
We are interested in films that represent temporal imaginings. For example, films whose plot addresses the tensions between continuity and change, ideas on the past and the future, and the politics of time. We also wish to review films that develop a perspective on cinematic-time, the experience of time as it is generated through the cinematic medium. Films that, for example, foreground duration, rhythm, and pace.
