flEXiff 2002-2022

The Eighth and the Last
Experimental International Film Festival

September 24-26, 2010

Festival Regulations

flEXiff is a global community cultural development and screen culture initiative by Cinewest, which expands across 2 decades.  flEXiff accepts entries during 2002 - 2022, whilst the organizers attempt to secure various funding, awards, sponsorships and venues for screenings within the next 20 years. The final selection for each edition may vary in numbers and time frames, as organizers reserve the right to experiment with form and content of the festival at all times.

flEXiff invites image makers and multimedia artists who are willing to;
-Disperse their work universally and eternally.
-Challenge the already existing alternative model structures that are merely a verisimilitude for the mainstream industry.
-Deconstruct the commercial values projected for particular art works by particular producers, promoters and distributors.

flEXiff requires no entry fee or restriction in format (film [35mm only]-video-digital), date of production and duration, except the work must experiment with form and content equally.  Entries will be notified about the final selection once the preparation for the eighth and maybe the last experimental international film festival is complete!  Meanwhile, the festival will create an archive of submitted works to be utilized for educational, distribution and promotional purposes, as well as organizing traveling and exchange programs.  The Ninth and The Last International Experimental Film Festival will be announced after the Eighth Edition (September 24-26, 2010).

flEXiff 2010 will be screening at Reading Cinemas (Auburn), Sydney Olympic Park and as part of Cinewest 'Cinémathèque' program as well as travel to remote and regional parts of Australia.

You must submit the following:

- On-line submission
- A Screener DVD (PAL or NTSC)
- A Still of the film


This information will appear in the catalogue or any related publicity.

Screening formats will be returned to their rightful owners before November 30, 2010. The festival reserves the right to keep the screeners for educational, archival and promotional purposes.
