    Cherry Kino is an independent wondermental film organisation (films that fill you with, and make you, wonder - a playfully alternative term for 'experimental' or 'avant-garde') in Leeds, UK. In 2008, Cherry Kino founded the wondermental film strand of the Leeds International Film Festival, and we are delighted to announce that submissions are now open.

    Celebrating its 25th edition this November, Leeds IFF is the biggest regional festival of its kind in the UK, and welcomes in excess of 25,000 visitors. The popular 'festival pass' initiative means that as well as regular attendees of Cherry Kino events, the wondermental programmes attract a diverse range of audiences who are open to trying different things, leading to a vibrant, eclectic, and appreciative audience. Highly respected internationally, Leeds IFF is a public festival rather than an industry one, and we pride ourselves on this fact and on the adventurous nature of our audiences which enables the Programming Team to present such a diverse and original programme, year on year.

    Submission to Cherry Kino is FREE. Submitted works must have a completion date after January 2010. UK Premiere status is not an issue, and neither is film length. The deadline for submission is 30th September, and all applicants will be informed by 15th October. We are able to screen the following formats: Super8, 16mm, MiniDV, Digi-Beta, Beta SP, and HDCam.

    Deadline: September 10th 2011
    Screening: TBA (Late September, Early October)

    The MisALT Screening Series is currently accepting submissions for it’s next screening: “Scratch v. Glitch.” We seek to create a dialog between Scratch Cinema (film based practices that make physical interventions on the celluloid level) and Glitch based video and media practices (which manipulate images by exploiting vulnerabilities on the molecular and electron level of video tape and code). While on the surface these practices appear contradictory, with one being concentrating on the materiality of film  and the other focusing on the malleability of data they both share a concern with manipulating their respective mediums on what is arguably their basest level.

    We are primarily interested in short to mid-length works (0-45minutes) but will consider work of longer durations and we are currently capable of exhibiting pieces on DVD, VHS, Super-8mm, 8mm, 16mm, or as digital files.

    Black Thorns in the Black Box
    Deadline October 1st 2011

    A film screening curated by Amelia Ishmael and Bryan Wendorf to occur in conjunction with “Black Thorns in the White Cube” an exhibition of Black Metal inspired art

    Amelia Ishmael, curator of the gallery exhibition “Black Thorns in the White Cube,” and Bryan Wendorf, co-founder and programmer of the Chicago Underground Film Festival, invite you to submit works for consideration to “Black Thorns in the Black Box,” a screening of Black Metal inspired films to take place in conjunction with the “Black Thorns in the White Cube” exhibitions.

    This screening will contribute to an international discourse currently occurring in Black Metal theory that examines the innovations and significance of contemporary Black Metal art, and offers an account of the critical disruptions taking place as this historical Norwegian musical subgenre transforms into a language of contemporary art. Practicing a transmodality between sound and vision, and pushing the limits of contemporary academic genres by definition, “Black Thorns in the Black Box” will feature a mutual blackening of art and metal.
