SUBMIT YOUR FILM TO THE 2013 KOREAN AMERICAN FILM FESTIVAL NEW YORK
April 10th, 2013
Korean American Film Festival New York (KAFFNY) is now accepting submissions for its 7th Annual film festival, taking place in New York City on October 17-19, 2013.

KAFFNY invites filmmakers of all backgrounds to submit for consideration their completed long- and short-format films — fiction or non-fiction — that are relevant to the Korean American community, the Korean diaspora, or Korean identified persons. Filmmakers working in narrative as well as experimental, performance, or music genres are all welcome to apply. (KAFFNY also considers works outside the Korean nexus featuring at least one key creative member of Korean heritage, regardless of the subject matter.)
Submissions are being accepted in the following four categories:

2) SHORTS PROGRAM
All genres, completed any date, for films shorter than 45 minutes.

4) VIDEO ART

KAFFNY is an arts organization based in NY promoting an annual film festival and other music and arts events. We began with a focus on diversity within our own community and evolved to acknowledge and promote our relationships to communities beyond.
KAFFNY brings light to the many connections and relationships that already exist between diverse people around the world, acknowledging that our own perspective is only a starting point. This direction has allowed us to put together unique programs and events, which continue to evolve and stay fresh. We receive film entries from all five continents and we've been invited to screen our programming in Los Angeles, Seoul, Australia, and St. Petersburg.
"Surprising and diverse in its selections, the sixth annual edition of this festival focuses on a variety of movies that Korean or Korean-American filmmakers have had a hand in. There are no geographical or thematic boundaries, so that can mean almost anything and anywhere." -WSJ, Steve Dollar
