The DeREEL Independent Film Festival is for
independent film makers, organised by independent film makers. We aim to showcase as many
quality independent films as possible. If you want to screen your movie in Australia, this
is the film festival you've been looking for.
Over
40 films have now obtained Australian distribution as a direct result of their submission
to the first 2 years of DeREEL, so we particularly encourage films without Australian
distribution in place to enter into the 3rd DeREEL Independent Film Festival.
We are now accepting entries for the 2009 festival. Each film selected for showing will
receive an Official Selection Laurel. Additional Laurels will be awarded to the films
judged by our panel to be the most outstanding in each category, with all films competing
for prizes of cash, goods and services.
This year we envision being able to showcase around 15% of the films entered, so this is a
great opportunity for film makers to get their films shown in Australia.
The DeREEL Independent Film Festival will be held from May 7 to May 14, 2009.
