HOME is Manchester’s centre for contemporary theatre, film, art, music and more. FilmedUp is their regular quarterly night for filmmakers local to their area. They are looking for films of under 20 minutes of “all genre fiction, animation, documentary, artist film…all are welcome!” old or new. I think I would place poetry film firmly in that dot, dot, dot …

To be local to Home, the director, writer or producer must live in the North West region of England: which includes Cheshire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Merseyside. Entry is free – which is lovely to discover once in a while!

More information and submissions https://homemcr.org/opportunity/want-your-short-film-screened-at-home/
The next deadline is 14 July for the event on 28 September, but submissions will continue on to the next quarterly event.
