The 2nd annual Wide Open Experimental Film Festival is now accepting submissions for the 2023 festival. See FilmFreeway to submit and for details and terms. https://filmfreeway.com/WideOpenExperimentalFilmFestival

WOEFF is a festival organized by the Film Department at Oklahoma City University. Inspired by Oklahoma’s wide-open landscape, we want to showcase experimental films that will open peoples’ eyes to the alternative forms, structures, and styles of film.

Think outside the box! We want films that break boundaries and challenge the traditional perception of film.

Our primary goal is to highlight experimental films. If your film is a traditional narrative, you should find another festival. We’re looking for anything that fits the broad, diverse definitions of experimental or avant-garde cinema, from lyrical to collage to structural to expanded cinema. Your film might include visual experimentation, it might be process-oriented, it might provoke visceral reactions. If it’s thought-provoking, mind-boggling, and eye-opening, we’d love to see it.W.O.E.F.F. will take place in person in Oklahoma City, April 2023.

Entry fee: $10 by Regular deadline (Nov 15), $20 by late deadline (December 5). If you have questions, you can contact the festival team at [email protected] or visit https://wideopeneff.wixsite.com/woeff.
