Submitted by FilmLab Festival

FilmLab is a new festival for short films made by students and recent graduates. We are currently seeking submissions for the festival which will take place in London in November.

A bit about us:

We believe that experimental and world cinema should be available for all, and that some of the most innovative, fresh and exciting films around are being made by students. With so much pressure on students to compete against professional and established film makers, we wanted to create a festival which would showcase the high standard of student work currently being produced around the world.

FilmLab was born out of dissatisfaction with the diversity in UK cinema and the opportunities for new film-makers. With recent news about the UK film council’s closure, the debate over its long time suppression or support of British cinema has began. FilmLab festival is proud to be independent and non-profit. Run entirely by volunteers, we aim to give film-makers new exposure and most importantly to help people see good films.
