Before submitting your film to BIIFF, carefully review and acknowledge the Rules and Terms, as your submission implies your binding agreement to adhere to them.
RULES
🡐🡒
Films submitted for a specific month in BIIFF can be resubmitted for a second chance, given different judging panels for each season.
Films in languages other than English must include English subtitles; otherwise, they may be rejected at the discretion of BIIFF.
BIIFF reserves the right to reject entries and allows directors/producers to submit multiple films in a category or across different categories simultaneously.
By submitting, you indemnify and hold BIIFF harmless from claims related to copyright, trademark, credits, and publicity, incurring any associated expenses.
Officially selected films will be listed on the festival website, indicating acknowledgment by the judging panel, but it doesn't guarantee screening at the festival.
BIIFF won't refund fees for incorrect category submissions. Films lacking correct fees or proper submission media may be deemed ineligible, with no coverage of filmmaker expenses.
Submission requires an official trailer or poster, synopsis, and a film link, with careful category selection to avoid disqualification. BIIFF reserves the right to reassign films to appropriate categories.
Nominees will be privately screened for the BIIFF judging panel, not initially to the public.
Filmmaker submission fees are non-refundable, even if they choose to withdraw their submission.
Indemnification clause: You agree to hold BIIFF harmless from claims related to copyright, trademark, credits, and publicity, covering associated expenses.
BIIFF may amend Rules & Terms without notice; updates are your responsibility to check periodically. Amendments are effective immediately upon publication.
