East Silver doc submissions open

By FNE Staff

    East Silver, the specialized Central and East European documentary market, has announced it will be accepting film submissions on a year round basis.

    A joint effort of the Czech Institute of Documentary Film (www.docuinter.net) and the Jihlava International Documentary Film Festival (www.dokument-festival.cz), the East Silver Doc Market (www.eastsilver.net) features a video library, catalogue, and on-line database of documentary films from across the CEE region. The East Silver Caravan promotes selected documentaries at specialized festivals and markets, including DISCOP in Budapest, the Krakow Film Festival, and the upcoming Crossing Europe festival in Linz.

    East Silver is now accepting documentaries (completed or rough cuts) produced in 2008 and 2009. English subtitles or voice-overs are required. Films will also be considered for preselection for the Jihlava festival.
