Infinite Perimeter Films anticipates submissions from many countries. Activists submit short & feature-length films, screenplays, music/songs, art and photos for consideration by our team of 3-8 judges, which may change seasonally. If you’re interested in helping us rate/judge submissions and/or writing film & music reviews, which we may publish at our websites, please call/text us, (720) 298-1524.
Since we don’t have paid staff yet, we rely on volunteers and fellow activists to help us put together our annual events. Consequently, we regret that we are unable to screen all of our official selections.
As our festival grows locally in popularity & sponsorship, we hope to invite sponsors, partners, friends and volunteers from around the Denver metro and surrounding areas. We hope to screen submissions for up to two weeks at multiple venues. We hope to hold panels and debates.
#CIAFF 2018 was held over three days at Denver Open Media (DOM). We received 138 submissions last season. We think the nice response was mainly due to the fact that we offered free music videos. Thanks and congratulations to everyone!
