Cellar Door Film Festival is Now Accepting Submissions!

December 12, 2014

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

OTTAWA, ON – Following a successful first season, Ottawa’s speculative genre festival is opening the Cellar Door once again! Cellar Door Film Festival (CDFF) is now accepting submissions for the second year of the festival, scheduled for November 2015.

Filmmakers are invited to submit speculative films of both short and feature length. This includes films made within the genres of horror, thriller, science fiction, fantasy, avant-garde, experimental, the supernatural, alternative history, mystery, grindhouse, and everything else in-between!

CDFF welcomes films from local, national, and international filmmakers, and encourages submissions from filmmakers of diverse backgrounds. CDFF also invites filmmakers from the Greater Ottawa Area to submit one short film for free (see website for details). By encouraging local productions, CDFF spotlights the strength of the Ottawa film scene and showcases works by local filmmakers alongside those of their international peers.

In order to facilitate as many submissions as possible, CDFF offers two submission methods: 1) upload online via one of the submission platforms noted on the CDFF submissions page, or 2) submit a hard copy by mail. For full details regarding deadlines, entry forms, requirements, and fees, please visit our submissions page.

We hope to open the cellar door and see your film at our festival in 2015!
