International Videopoetry Contest Section – Short films
Deadline Date: July 10, 2024
Donor Name: MALDITO FESTIVAL DE VIDEOPOESÍA
Grant Size: Less than $1000
The MALDITO FESTIVAL DE VIDEOPOESÍA is seeking applications to vindicate video poetry as an art that connects people, transmits feelings and stimulates different ways to see the world.
It is also a tiny contribution of enormous people to empower visual art, stopping it from being marginal and damned.
MALDITO FESTIVAL DE VIDEOPOESÍA is an international videopoetry contest that has been held in Albacete (Spain) since 2017.
MALDITO FESTIVAL launch this contest with the purpose to show two disciplines that, either individually or collectively, are much more isolated and forgotten as they would like. According to the experience, these disciplines are considered marginal and minor in the extent of the great European capitals, moreover, in the humble towns within regional borders where its dissemination is non-existent.
The festival is organized by non-profit Association Cultural Maldito; formed by a small team of professionals from the film industry, poetry and culture in general.
MALDITO Crew, as lovers of poetry, image and the expressive possibilities of its symbiosis, they pick up the baton and propose to continue the line of action, encouraging their approach to the public, either with the festival events or the educational activities that they carry out.
