The annual FRACTO Experimental Film Encounter once again invites filmmakers working in the varied domain of Experimental film to showcase their works combining contemporary contexts with a perceptual concern for how they are framed.
The entire festival is planned to take place on-site in Berlin, however due to the ongoing Covid situation, we might have to adapt some of our plans in light of the circumstances in Germany at the scheduled time of the festival.
Every year, FRACTO Experimental Film Encounter invites artists to present experimental film works which explore today’s perceptual landscape and question its set of technological configurations and to engage with the public to discuss current forms of audiovisual experimental art.
FRACTO is now accepting submissions for its 4th edition, which will take place at Kunsthaus ACUD in Berlin from May 27-31, 2020.
FRACTO is an annual Experimental Film Encounter inviting artists and filmmakers to present works that explore today's perceptual landscape and interrogate its set of technological configurations.

"The apparatus as an eccentric performer within the film.”
FRACTO festival seeks to reflect upon the techno-attitude that directs film towards the demands of its apparatus, constantly floating as a supreme and fragmented perceptual eye. In this configuration perceptual contingency is ultimately conceived as a totalizing, post-organic point of view—seemingly seeking primarily itself—instead of folding in on specific meanings conveyed by a clear distance from medium.
Fracto 2017 is the first edition of a new annual Experimental Film Festival which will be held on May 20st/21th at ACUD Cinema & Studio. Out of more than 800 submissions a highly international program of 42 works was selected, including a great number of world, international and german premieres. This year's special program (Sat. 21:30h) focuses on the Berlin-based artists Anouk De Clercq, James Edmonds and OJOBOCA (Anja Dornieden & Juan David Gonzalez) with screenings, a Live Cinema / Dual 16mm Projector Performance and artist talks moderated by our guest from Milan Tommaso Isabella.
