*NOTE COVID-19*
Our event as of today will be hosted on the original intended dates. We are closely following the rules and regulations set by the government of Norway. We know already that they are opening cinemas in a limited capacity. Our hope is that cinemas are allowed to full capacity before our event. If any plans change for our live event, we will notify all selected filmmakers with new dates. Stay healthy, FLOCK ON, not off...
Ravenheart International Film Festival will be held at the renowned Cinemateket at Filmens Hus in Oslo, Norway. Here at RIFF, we aim to connect all filmmakers, domestic and foreign through the universal language of film. Celebrating all styles of cinema but particularly spotlighting genre films. RIFF is an event where all filmmakers, fans of the art of film, and all creatives can come together to share their experiences and love for cinema.
At Ravenheart, submissions are open to all types of genre films. We are looking to showcase the best in horror, sci-fi/fantasy, thrillers/suspense, dark comedy & animation. Guest speakers, Q&As, booths, and networking opportunities will all be held at the event. We also invite local aspiring filmmakers/students to inspire one another and others into becoming better filmmakers.
So, if you love high-quality genre films and anything out of the norm, then you can't miss this festival!
