The European Film Festival 2023 is calling on filmmakers from across Zimbabwe and in the diaspora (Europe/Africa) for entries for the fourth edition of the Bioskop Zimbabwe Short Film competition.
Submissions will be open until 2 September 2023. The venues for screenings will take place in Harare at Mbare Arts Space on 20 – 22 October while in Bulawayo screenings will take place at Ster Kinekor from 26-28 October.
This year’s theme is: “Crossing borders.”
“With the advent of the internet and different ways of connecting with people in different places across the globe, the world has become a global village.
“This is also an opportunity for individuals to discover new approaches. How are we using these mans to our advantage and connecting with each other? Can crossing borders also affect our lives negatively, disturb our stability, and result in a shift in how we do things?
“Crossing borders may also man starting a new life and losing one’s process. We also have borders within ourselves, culturally, racially, religiously, or any other relatable borders. There areso many aspects that encompass the theme, therefore, we are curious to find out the filmmakers’ interpretations,” the festival organisers said about the theme.
Those wishing to submit can contact: @EuroFilmFestzw or www.eurofilmfest.co.zw
