08 · 06 · 07 Last Call for Entry to IDFA Share with twitter Share with facebook Share with mail Copy to clipboard Dear documentary filmmaker: Each year, IDFA selects and screens more than 250 documentaries, running the gamut from international audience favourites to artistic experiments along the fringes of the genre. This year, IDFA will celebrate its 20th anniversary. Also, the festival, together with the FORUM and Docs for Sale, will move to new locations in the historic centre of Amsterdam. We hereby welcome you to submit your films. There are no entry fees involved, not even if your film gets selected for the festival. However, please keep in mind the deadline of August 10. We’re looking forward to a great documentary harvest. Ally Derks, IDFA DirectorRegulationsIn addition to the Joris Ivens Competition (documentaries longer than 60 minutes), the Silver Wolf Competition (30-60 minutes), the Silver Cub Competition (shorter than 30 minutes), and the First Appearance Competition (for debuting directors), the festival includes many other programmes.
