Call for entries.
Mikrokino FEST will be held in late January (26 - 31, 2001) in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, as
a special section of the FEST 2001, large international non-competitive
film festival supported by the City of Belgrade.
Mikrokino FEST will be organized by LOW-FI VIDEO (Belgrade-based
organization promoting short, independent and alternative films), the
leading Eastern European microcinema programmer. LOW-FI VIDEO was
launched in 1997, and to date it has screened almost 400 Serbian and
more than 80 foreign short films, in the collaboration with the
Seattle-based Microcinema, Inc. / Blackchair Productions, which is this
festival's co-organizer.
Mikrokino FEST is looking for titles from all over the world. The
categories are:
1. Short narrative (drama, comedy, action, any other genre)
2. Short animation (any kind)
3. Short experimental
4. Documentary
5. Internet and CD-ROM film (made primarily for the Internet or CD-ROM
presentation)
Films should not be longer than 20 minutes. Documentaries may be longer
than that, but the preferrable duration is up to 40 minutes, due to the
limited projection time.
Films may have originated in any format but must be submitted on VHS
(PAL preferrably) or CD-ROM.
Films completed in 1999 and 2000 are eligible.
There is no entry fee.
There is no censorship.
Each film will be previewed by the preview jury, which will select the
films to be shown at the Mikrokino FEST 2001. Members of the preview
jury are the most distinguished Serbian alternative filmmakers.

consideration for alternative microcinema distribution throughout
Eastern Europe.
