The Film Festival of Cinematic Arts (IFFCA) is started by passionate
cinema enthusiasts who would like to contribute to the film community
and recognize the excellence and hard work which goes in making of a
film. The festival has a goal of fostering a meaningful global
conversation between cultures and countries through Cinema.
The festival is a joyous celebration of the art and craft of
cinematic storytelling. We celebrate and recognize not only the
directors, actors, but also present jury awards to screenwriters,
editors, and composers. At the Cinematic Arts film festival, we
celebrate all artists responsible for creating cinema.
Finally, it is indeed possible to tell evocative, visceral,
meaningful, and moving films without spending millions of dollars. The
Cinematic Arts film festival will inspire filmmakers around the world by
premiering examples of films made on micro budgets. We have also
included a new category just for music videos to appreciate the
creativity and talent it takes to make these short forms of film making.
Be a part of this global cinematic experience.

Hello!
You´re now welcome to submit your film to the upcoming 14th Norrkoping Film Festival
Flimmer. Important dates and entry form is available on our website: www.flimmer.nu
Deadline: 25th of July!
___
Flimmer is southeast Sweden's biggest independent film organisation and is based in Norrköping, a former forerunner of the industrial revolution in Sweden. In a city steeped in tradition and history, Flimmer has successfully established itself in two distinct areas.
Norrkoping Film festival Flimmer is a favourite in the cinema-goers' calendar in southeast Sweden. The 14th annual festival will take place between 5th and 14th of October this year. Following the huge success of last year's festival, Flimmer will, this year, offer a multitude of films to please anybody who is genuinely interested in cinema. All the films are shown in Norrköping and are screened at times and in venues to maximise your enjoyment. Last year's festival opened with the Swedish film “Stockholm Östra”, the Swedish premieres of “Even the Rain” and Liz Garbus’ “Bobby Fischer Against the World”. The festival also saw the Swedish premieres of “Talihina Sky: the Story of Kings of Leon” and James Gunn’s “Super” as well as shocking yet informative documentaries; animation; short films; Midnight Screenings; and face-to-face interviews with actors, actresses and directors. This year the attempt is not only to maintain the quality and variety of last year’s festival but also to make this year even more memorable. Last year we therefore made the move to Cnema ( www.cnema.se ), the new venue for cinema goers in Norrköping and the East Sweden region, where three top modern auditoriums will host this year’s festival screenings.
Our open air cinema is the biggest open-air cinema event in Sweden. The Flimmer Utomhusbio visits around 30 places in Sweden between June and September, and is welcoming 40 000 people to the inflatable giant screen. The open air cinema runs between May and September and this year’s programmes include Oscar winners and well-known Swedish titles. The programme is available here in May and each screening is free, although there will be a raffle every evening and donations are gratefully received.
