NZFF Homegrown ‘09 – Call For Entries
Press Release for Immediate release

Deadline April 17th 2009

MIC Toi Rerehiko in collaboration with the 2009 New Zealand International Film Festivals is pleased to announce a call for submissions for Homegrown, New Zealand’s première showcase for local short films, video and animation.

In the spirit of promoting, distributing and exhibiting innovative media art, MIC Toi Rerehiko annually presents Homegrown as a well-established and always dynamic platform for bringing the innovative work of the independent film and digital media community to a diverse national and international audience. All three categories within the Homegrown programme consistently attract the most cutting-edge and eminently viewable talent from both up-and-coming and established filmmakers wanting to present their work at the highest level of film festival exhibition in this country. From the poignant to the skillfully irreverent the Homegrown programme always aims to support a uniquely contemporary New Zealand cinematic vision.

We are interested in receiving submissions from both up-and-coming and established filmmakers who would like the opportunity to have their film screened to a diverse and discerning audience as part of this year’s 2009 New Zealand International Film Festival.

Please go to www.mic.org.nz to download the NZFF Homegrown entry form which includes entry details and technical requirements.

* Works in progress are also considered, but please include a detailed description of any proposed changes.
* Filmmakers who do NOT live in New Zealand, Australia or the Pacific Islands OR hold a New Zealand passport should use the International entry form.
