Chicago Underground Film FestivalThe Chicago Underground Film Festival exists to showcase the defiantly independent filmmaker. Our mission is to promote films and videos that dissent radically in form, technique, or content from the “indie” mainstream and to present adventurous works that challenge and transcend commercial and audience expectations…if you suspect your film is “underground,” it probably is.
"Defiantly independent and deliberately scandalous" -- Michael Wilmington,Chicago Tribune
"What you get for your money isn`t just admission to the films but admission to a subculture" -- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times Chicago Underground Film FestivalGUIDELINES DEADLINES SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Preview copies must be NTSC DVD or region free Blu-Ray or a secure online screener (withoutabox, Vimeo etc). Foreign language work must be dubbed or subtitled in English. Please, do not send elaborate presentation materials, press kits, binders, etc. with your entry. All that is necessary to send is a clearly identified DVD and, if you like, a synopsis or contextual statement about your work. These are the only items that the programmers will see when they evaluate your submission. We don’t want you to pay for unnecessary materials, and they generate lots of waste. If your film is selected for the festival we will contact you about images and press kits. or better yet: put these materials online and type the URL into your entry form.
