EMDC is back in-person meeting up in the Netherlands and the film festival previously known as the “Mini Film, Mini Preview” is redubbed at “Coming Attractions”. This will be hosted on the first night of the EMDC conference on Tues 31 May from 19:30 to 21:00.

The goal is to preview short, creative media products from the last few years that focus mainly on the not-yet-reached world. These could include short live or animated films, documentaries, narratives, and movie trailers.  We are MOSTLY looking for:

• Clips from the last two or three years that have not yet been featured at recent past EMDC events

• New previews or trailers for movies that are focused on unreached people groups

• Material that could be appropriately dubbed into neighboring languages

• Documentaries of people groups inspiring others to highlight minority people groups

• Films actually done by or with minority peoples

• Animation or live-action shorts that highlight a biblical story or principle that can then be dubbed into other languages.

Do you have a project that fits any of these criteria? You may submit your whole film to the review committee, but the maximum screen-time limit per entry is 6 minutes. Consequently, we may ask you to re-edit the piece to fit the time-frame or opt to show a trailer instead. A short trailer is best. If you do not have a trailer, and are just showing a clip from the film as an example, please limit that to 3 minutes.

Films do not need to be evangelistic in nature and could focus on anthropology, prayer, biblical parables, social matters, etc. Films produced for a Western audience are primarily not what we are looking for, unless it is your goal to advertise your services and you are producing products in minority languages for others.

All entries must be submitted by 15 May 2022.
