Moonplay Cinema is currently accepting submissions for Cinecriture, a screening event of short films at Open Book, on Wednesday, April 10, 2024.
For this screening event, we seek films 30 minutes or less with an intersectional feminist edge. Encouraged submissions include films that address issues of gender, sexuality, race, and other forms of conversation expressing truth and realism. Films which are not necessarily based on a screenplay. Films of intentional choices written and formed together through the creative act of filmmaking. This may be found in works of experimental video, essays, moving image poems, innovative narratives, etc.
Cinecriture is part of a series of events titled Candid, an interdisciplinary art festival. The event will include screenings, workshops, and a zine fair to celebrate the release of “You're a Filmmaker, You're an Artist,” a zine featuring articles from a community of filmmakers of all ages, backgrounds, and skill levels from emerging to established professionals, from experimental to narrative. Essays, profiles, and more will discuss filmmakers' professional and artistic practices.
Cinecriture is curated by Jes Reyes.
January 30th is the last day to submit to Cinecriture. The submission fee is waived for all submissions today. Code: CANDID2024
Moonplay has a Featured Artist program to honor and recognize promising films made by innovative and creative filmmakers. Featured Artists will be invited to participate in a conversation on Where to From Here, our podcast program.
