We now invite all filmmakers, artists, distributors, producers, gallerists, universities and institutions to submit their most current works and projects to the 37th Kassel Documentary Film and Video Festival. The entire film program as well as the works for the exhibition Monitoring will be selected from all submissions. All installations of the exhibition Monitoring compete for the Golden Cube.

Local Sightings 7/15/20
1 Min Dance Film Challenge The Dance / Film Residency is offered by Northwest Film Forum and Velocity Dance Center to an artistic team selected through this year’s Dance Film Challenge, as part of Local Sightings Film Festival 2020. Teams/individuals are invited to submit one dance film up to 60 seconds in length. We encourage artists to use the tools they have: these can be shot/edited on your phone, in the rehearsal studio, on the street, in your room. The value is placed not on the expensive equipment + software you can access, but how you use the instruments and materials you have available. Audience votes will determine which team/individual receives the residency, which comprises rehearsal space and an open rehearsal/exhibition/screening at NWFF! Exact days/times of the residency will be determined based on artist and venue schedule and availability.
