CALL FOR ENTRIES: Penang short films for George Town Literary Fest

I am choosing short films to show in the 2nd annual George Town Literary Festival which will take place 29 November - 1 December in a few venues in the beautiful capital city of Penang.

I am particularly interested to show new work set in Penang.

If you have a short film made in 2013 — fiction, documentary, experimental, animation — set in Penang and/or with a Penang theme, do send me an email at matahari.books@gmail.com . Of course, you are welcome to start making a new short right now!

Minimum length: 1 minute. Maximum length: 20 minutes. Works not in English will require English subtitles.

Deadline 1 November 2013. Upload your short on Youtube & Vimeo and then send me a Facebook message with the password/link. Selected shorts will be announced by 8 November. (Depending on the number of entries received, it may not be possible to screen everything.)

There will be two public screenings of short films during the festival, open to the public. Ideally the filmmakers should also be present to take part in a short discussion after the screenings. 

I look forward to your entries!
