ContraVision

ContraVision International Film Festival
since 1993

contravision - a film festival for those who not only want to passively watch films but want to make films themselves. underground films, independent and inventive, versatile, insubordinate, funny or melancholy, low budget or no budget but with great ambition. contravision doesn't see itself solely as a competition but aims at increasing media awareness among both the filmmakers and the audience.

at contravision, the audience and not a jury of professionals is asked to chose the winners of the festival. we want to present the audience with highlights of creative film making by unknown directors and future stars with a focus on original ideas and imaginative realisation instead of technical sophistication.

the purpose is to refocus the publics attention on independent short films that are produced off the beaten track of mainstream cinema and therefore are often excluded from the commercial cinema circuits.

visions contra total television.
your film: no limitation as to subject or genre. not longer than 30 minutes.
all nominated films take part in the competition. the seven winners of the contravision awards are elected by the audience.
