Send my film

On the festival platform, fill in the registration form: your first and last name, date of birth, country and city, phone number and email address, the competition you choose, your role in the project and a password of at least 8 characters.

Already have an account from a previous edition? Don’t create a new one: sign in (step 3) and click “Take part in the 7th edition” in your area.

An email is sent to you as soon as you register. Click the link it contains (it stays valid for 72 hours): your address is confirmed and your registration is processed. Once your registration is accepted, you receive your registration number, your reference for the whole edition.

Nothing received? Check your spam folder. From your area, the “Resend the verification e-mail” button sends you a new one.

Sign in with your email address (or your first and last name) and your password. Without a password, you can also ask for a sign-in link by email. Your participant area shows the status of your entry and the progress of your work.

In your area, open “My works”, then “Submit a work”. Your contact details and registration number are already filled in. You then give:

• your capacity: rights holder or authorised by the rights holders;
• the competition: human creation or artificial intelligence;
• the title and synopsis, and if you wish the screenwriter and production company;
• for human creation, the filming device (phone, camera…); for AI, the tools used and what for (writing, image, voice, video);
• the language of the dialogue and, where needed, Arabic or English subtitles.

Several videos? Repeat this step for each one: every work has its own entry and its own agreement.

On the same page, upload the video file (MP4 or MOV): its running time and dimensions are checked on receipt. You can also give a public or shared link (YouTube, Google Drive, Vimeo…); in that case you state the running time and declare the format, resolution and landscape orientation.

• Add the poster and any useful documents if you wish (technical sheet, subtitles…).
• Tick the originality declaration, then “Save and go to the agreement”: the entry is kept as a draft.

Before the final submission, the platform shows the “Submitter declaration and screening authorization”, with the 24 articles of the terms as an annex. You tick the declarations one by one, type your full name and draw your signature on screen, with a finger or the mouse. This signature is what submits the video.

A PDF copy of the signed agreement remains available in your area.

Your area shows where each work stands: submission, review by the screening committee, jury evaluation, awards. The selection result is sent to you by email: keep an eye on your inbox.

Do not announce your participation before the festival has announced it.
