Vilmos Zsigmond
We are interested in films that are bold and uncensored, films that invite us into your world, that will shock us, madden us, make us cry and laugh, films with moments that are especially lovely, serendipitous, interesting, candid or moving. E-Mail us your submission!
There is no particular theme and the only restriction is that your film cannot have been shown in our series before. We are now open for submissions for 2016.
PLEASE DONATE TO OUR SERIES HERE.
