Chicago Palestine Film
Festival
 The Chicago Palestine Film Festival committee is issuing a
call for films by Palestinian filmmakers and for films about
Palestine for our sixth annual 2007 festival as well as subsequent
festivals.
The committee accepts films and videos of all genres and of
any duration. For films with non-English dialogue, English subtitles
are required. Film selection criteria include artistry, technical
skill and content. We are especially interested in work by
Palestinian filmmakers, but nationality is not a selection criteria.
Preview editions must be VHS or DVD in either NTSC or PAL
encoding. These preview copies become property of the Chicago
Palestine Film Festival committee and will not be returned. The
filmmakers retain all rights to their submitted films.
The deadline for submission for the 2007 festival is January
15, 2007.
Submission does not guarantee exhibition of the film in the
Chicago Palestine Film Festival. There is no submission fee for the
festival, but the festival does not pay screening fees for submitted
films.
The Chicago Palestine Film Festival (CPFF) is an independent,
not-for-profit, non-sectarian project based in Chicago that exhibits
and promotes films by Palestinian directors and films about
Palestine.
CPFF is dedicated to presenting a film festival that is open,
critical and reflective of the culture, experience and vision of the
filmmakers.
For film submissions, please complete the online application
at
our web site and then send a preview copy to the following
postal address by January 15, 2007:
Chicago Palestine Film Festival
637 S. Dearborn
Ave., 3rd Floor
Chicago, IL 60605
