FAQ

  • How long can my film be?

    We are accepting everything from full-length feature films to 20 second shorts! Selected full-length films will not be screened in full, but we will screen a trailer. All selected shorts will be screened.

  • What's the submission deadline?

    All films must be submitted by 11:59PM on September 20th, 2025. Films can be submitted via the submission form on this website.

  • Will there be seating?

    There will be extremely limited seating but the vibe is a Commercial Drive party, with the DJ playing and people drinking while films screen until the finalists are presented, at which point we will turn off the tunes and focus on the films. The audience will then have a chance to vote for the Audience Favourite and all of the awards will be presented.

    Nope! Sorry kiddos, you gotta sit this one out. This is a 19+ party with lots of liquor and no restrictions on film content.
