Cultural diversity is one of the most valuable results of human existence. It is an inexhaustible source of innovation and development. Intercultural dialogue largely contributes to the preservation and advancement of cultural diversity and the peaceful coexistence of peoples. Art, the most impressive manifestation of culture, has always furthered mutual understanding and respect across borders. For this reason the International Delphic Council has initiated the international contest for documentary short films called DELPHIC ART MOVIE AWARD.
Show the Power of Art – Develop the Intercultural Dialogue!
What makes art fascinating?
Which artistic achievements have coined the culture of a country in the last 10 years?
What do national identity and tradition mean to contemporary art?
How can enthusiasm for art be conveyed to an uninvolved audience?
Answers to these questions are expected from the contest contributions of the DELPHIC ART MOVIE AWARD 2011.
The nominated films will be shown to the public at the ITB. The award ceremony will take place at the “Palais am Funkturm” during the final show of the ITB Berlin 2011 on March 13th.

19 years of contravision film festival
1993 - 2011
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.
DEADLINE FOR FILM SUBMISSIONS: MARCH 31, 2011
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.
submission form: http://www.contravision.de
no entry fee, online form and film upload instead.
festival: september 9-10 & 16-18, 2011 in the zeiss grossplanetarium in berlin

Leave Them Laughing. It's the film that took the Special Jury Prize – Canadian Feature at the May 7 awards bash for Toronto's Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival (April 29 to May 9, 2010). And it could be the motto for the 17th annual fest, which played to packed audiences even as business slackened at its annual market.
The film, by Oscar-winning director John Zaritsky, is about laughing in the face of terminal illness. How to live despite tough odds is a challenge the d...
