Rules & Terms

Technical and humanitarian standards:
The festival management is highly interested in the participating films that have an artistic treatment and a deep vision that reflects what is happening in our community, in addition to the image aesthetics and performance techniques. The festival is searching for a new and serious perspective that is out of the standard filming box. We'd rather not receive superficial films that lack the artistic intelligence and self-effort. Hence, there are no specific conditions or topics that we stipulate for accepting the short film. What actually matters to us is that we and the viewers enjoy the creative ideas of directors and writers and their treatment of what is happening around them, especially from the eye of the younger generation.

Runtimes :
Shorts is under 30 min.
Longs is over 30 min.

Produced: 2018 / 2019 / 2020 / 2021/ 2022
