Rules and Terms

The Second Edition of the Chameleon Film Festival – Visions from the Contemporary will take place on a monthly basis. We will announce the selected films and the winners at the end of each deadline on our official website and on FilmFreeway, sending official laurels and certificates. The Festival will conclude with an annual event with live screenings. The works invited to the screening will be asked for: a high resolution file of the film, synopsis, press material, photo and bio-filmography of the director, still photos.

Works produced after January 1, 2020, of any genre and theme (comedy, drama, horror, science fiction, fantasy, documentary) are accepted as long as they are relevant to the substantial requirement of the Festival: the story of contemporary reality.

Works that promote forms of racism, intolerance or pornography will not be taken into consideration.

Feature films over 50 minutes, documentaries of any length and short films with a duration of no more than 30 minutes are admitted, including animated works.

For the works presented in the Review Category there will be the possibility of obtaining an official critical review and an interview with the Director who will be given ample space on our website.

A jury of experts and enthusiasts will view the films with a view free from the constraints of the market, from distribution impositions, from categories of thought, to reward the most deserving works and thus begin to form the Contemporary Library, a virtual audiovisual library that collects short films capable in some way of giving us an authentic and analytical image of the contemporary world.

The works must necessarily be subtitled in English in the case of non-Italian productions.
