CALL FOR ENTRIES 2009

The Boston Palestine Film Festival (BPFF) is now accepting entries for its 3rd annual festival to be held in October 2009.

BPFF seeks to present the extraordinary narrative of a dispossessed people living in exile, under military occupation and siege, and within Israel. Palestinian cinema represents a powerful means of interpreting the collective identity, historic struggle, and surreal life circumstances and challenges that Palestinians presently face.

The festival will showcase the diverse and creative work of all filmmakers (any nationality) exploring both historic and contemporary themes related to Palestinian culture, experience, and narrative.

The BPFF Selection Committee accepts films, videos and digital media in the following categories:

• Feature Films
• Documentaries
• Shorts (including animated or experimental works)
• Youth Work (created by filmmakers under the age of 18)

The Extended deadline is now March 16th, 2009. Early submissions are encouraged.

There is no entry fee for International Submissions or Youth Work.

Please download the submission form (in PDF or Word format) and send it to us with the preview screener according to the guidelines indicated.
