TIE invites submissions for its 2007 Festival of films, filmmakers and curatorial innovation (November 21-24 / Montevideo, Uruguay). Since the festival's inception in Telluride, TIE has screened over 600 innovative historic and contemporary films and joined over 200 of the world's most influential avant-garde filmmakers. TIE has also become home for ground-breaking world premiers, from legends such as Stan Brakhage to a new generation of leading experimentalists.
TIE seeks films that challenge popular and conventional modes of cinema. From difficult and hand-made films to extraordinarily radical and obscure compositions, TIE selects only outstanding celluloid cinema from the outerspaces of contemporary screen-culture.
*If a submitted film is selected, the exhibition print must be film.
*All lengths are considered. A nominal entry fee is required.
*Films from any era or date of completion are considered.
*Initial Deadline: June 22, 2007.
