ACEFEST 2009
Accepting Entries: Feb 17 - May 18
The Lake Arrowhead Film Festival is proud to announce the 2009 Lake Arrowhead Film Festival Online. This year we will be offering an outstanding lineup of short films in various categories for your online viewing pleasure.

The largest Mountain & Adventure Filmfestival with competition in german speaking Europe! Main prize is the "Grand Prix Graz" + €uro 5.000,-- category prizes "Camera Alpine in Gold" + €uro 3.000,--
Films with alpine, nature, adventure and ethnological themes.
Magma has always focused
exclusively on the short film, considering it as a separate art form,
as a format allowing the experimentation of new styles and the creation
of new trends. The festival offers a chance of visibility for high-value works that
are often precluded from the main distribution channels. Its aim is to
build a bridge between the audience and the endless forms of expression
of the short format.
The Camden International Film Festival (CIFF) is committed to
supporting and generating interest in independent documentary films.
The annual festival presents a snapshot of the cultural landscape
through the year’s best non-fiction storytelling, connecting filmmakers
with eager audiences and industry representatives to discuss
documentary film as an art form, a catalyst for change and as an outlet
for the independent voice.
Main purpose is to attract people's attention to justice in the modern world. The festival accepts films dedicated to human rights, animal and environmental protection, social, philosophical films, films on moral aspects.
Do we need movie critics? US newspapers and magazines increasingly think not. In recent years, many of the most celebrated film reviewers in the US have either retired or lost their jobs.
Also, watch the report on the FORUM and see the results of the Any Media workshop. Watch IDFA TV on the homepage or following this link.
On one level, 'Necrobusiness' is an amusing account of how three business partners fall out when their business strategy goes awry. On another, it is a terrifying tale of murder, blackmail, and ultimately betrayal.
IDFA’s Kids and Docs sidebar, showcasing international documentaries made for children aged eight to thirteen, has gone from strength to strength this year, with sell-out screenings most afternoons.
