Call for Entries - A Conversation in Film

PocketVisions and the British Museum are bringing The Margaret Mead Film Festival (New York) to the UK for the first time in order to initiate A Conversation in Film between European and US filmmakers.

A Conversation in Film is calling for European documentary films (between 10 and 120 mins) made in the last two years (since January 1st 2005), that fall within the following categories:
  • Environment
  • Human Rights
  • Ethnography/anthropology
  • Politics
  • Heritage and the Arts
  • Other social and development issues
All successful applicants will be invited to present their films in person. The festival is looking to support new and innovative filmmaking talent to take part in a series of intertwining dialogues that reflect on the ways in which documentary film is a powerful means of describing lived experience and interpreting issues of society and culture.

Those films screened on 17th March 2007, in the Clore Education Centre at The British Museum, will be automatically submitted for selection to the Margaret Mead Film Festival November 2007.

Deadline for Submissions - 20th December 2006

Late entries accepted until 30th December with penalty (see regulations)
