TO THE POINT - WOMEN TELLING STORIES THROUGH MEDIA

Your are invited to participate in To The Point: Women Telling Stories Through Media, a program of short films to be presented at the Hampton's International Film Festival in Long Island, New York, Oct 7 - 11, 2010. To The Point is offered exclusively to Women In Film & Television members, presented through a partnership between Women in Film & Television International and New York Women in Film & Television. This unique showcase offers our members worldwide the opportunity to present their work at a major international film festival. Select short films will be screened at the 18th Annual Hamptons International Film Festival, 07-11 October, 2010, in East Hampton, New York. The deadline for submissions is 01 July, 2010.   Throughout the past seven years, To The Point selections have encompassed fictional narratives, animation, documentaries and experimental films and videos. These exceptional works have brought original and unorthodox perspectives of both challenging and uplifting experiences of women throughout the world. Members of the film and television communities as well as general audiences have enthusiastically received the short films, some of which were also included in the Women in Film and Television International Showcase 2010 - giving even more world-wide exposure though this opportunity reserved for Women in Film & Television members only!   Films submitted to To The Point are first reviewed by a panel of NYWIFT member filmmakers and then finalized by the Programming Department of the Hamptons International Film Festival.   We invite you to participate in this benefit of membership, the To The Point screenings, by downloading an application at http://www.nywift.org/article.aspx?id=1700.   Please note that submitting to To The Point does not automatically enter your film into other categories of The Hamptons International Film Festival.  If you also wish to be considered for other categories of the HIFF Festival, submit directly to HIFF Shorts Category at www.hamptonsfilmfest.org.   Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Tanja Meding at tanja.meding@t-online.de . We very much look forward to receiving your submission for To The Point and celebrating your work inthis way.
