Short Film Competition with Legal Theme!

The Forum on Law, Culture & Society is currently accepting submissions for our inaugural Short Film Competition on a legal theme.

Winning shorts will be screened during the annual Forum Film Festival in New York City in October 2012. Each year the Forum’s Film Festival features renowned filmmakers, actors, writers, journalists, public intellectuals, and members of the legal profession. The Film Festival also attracts overflowing and diverse crowds of film enthusiasts, which provides a great platform for showcasing your winning work.

While this is a legal-themed film competition, we want you to have fun, be creative and take some chances on new approaches. Any genre goes—musical, documentary, thriller, drama, romantic comedy, to name a few. We are looking for films dealing with the law and legal issues, not just a police drama or murder mystery. Visit the Forum Web site for an idea of the variety of legal-themed films that have been screened at Forum events. 

Students, independent filmmakers and amateur/aspiring filmmakers are all invited to enter.
   
        Deadline:  
        Entries must be received by the end of the day on May 15, 2012.

        Awards:
        Best Short, 2nd and 3rd place, Best Screenplay and Audience Favorite.
