Documentary Film Festival seeks entries [Worldwide]

Documentarians worldwide can submit their non-fiction films and compete for US$500 cash prizes.

The Big Sky Documentary Film Festival, a program of the Big Sky Film Institute, is accepting entries for its 19th annual film festival. Big Sky provides a setting for filmmakers to premiere new work and develop lasting relationships with fellow filmmakers and industry leaders.

Cash prizes will be given for best feature, best short, best mini-doc and the Big Sky Award. Films that win the best short and best mini-doc categories qualify to compete for an Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Short Form Documentary Award.

Standard entry fees apply for each category, ranging from US$5 to US$50 for entries received by the regular deadline. Discounted entry fees are available for Montana filmmakers or filmmakers with Montana-based films and indigenous filmmakers.

The film festival will be held in Missoula, Montana in February 2022.

The regular deadline is Aug. 31.
