Submit Your Film
*SUBMISSIONS ARE CURRENTLY CLOSED*
As the 2012 Festival draws near, submissions are closed. We will reopen them after this year’s festival in a couple of months time. Please check back soon for more information.
You can submit your film to us in one of two ways. Firstly, via post. To do that, you will need to send us your film on a region 0 or region 2 DVD, along with a completed submission form (below), and your payment (cheque made payable to Norwich Film Festival or paypal accepted – contact us for Paypal).
The second method is via Withoutabox. This is the internationally accepted, online, festivals submissions website, and is our preferred method of entry. You can submit online now by clicking the link below.
