Our call for entries is officially closed, but we wanted to just take a moment to send our deepest and most sincere thank you to all of the filmmakers that submitted films. We received over 100 entries again this season and you've made our job even harder with the amazing quality of work. We should have our lineup decided and acceptance letters delivered within a few weeks. But now you may be asking yourself, "What if my film isn't chosen to screen? Am I just flushing my money down the commode ?!"
As filmmakers ourselves, we feel (and have felt for years) your pain in the pocket book, so.......
Starting this season, whether your film is selected or not, your paid submission gets you a single full weekend pass to the festival!! (more details to come later) That's a $20 value, which - if we're doing the math right - means that the filmmakers who submitted early are actually getting money back! Consider it our way of thanking you for your continued support of our festival.
So, please come to Chico and spend the weekend with us and dozens of other filmmakers from around the world for three days of films and fun.
Thanks again!!!
