It’s Deadline List time again! June’s list is one of many highlights, starting with Giffoni Film Festival. ‘For some filmmakers it can be very scary, but at the same time it’s very funny,’ said Deputy Artistic Director Antonia Grimaldi in our FOCUS interview earlier this year. Why’s that? It’s a festival dedicated for films for children and teenagers – a tough audience indeed!
‘Doclisboa is a space for reflection.’ That’s what Program Coordinator Miguel Ribeiro had to say about his festival, a documentary festival that aims to stimulate real discussion.
And if that’s not enough, there’s important deadlines at New Orleans Film Festival, DokumentArt, Ozu Film Festival and many others to keep you on your submitting toes this month…
