For this festival, filmmakers from all walks of life, Iranian and non-Iranian, are welcome to create a five-minute movie of any genre and style, visualizing their unique take on Iranian Heritage. Farhang Foundation defines Iranian Heritage as a way of life and culture that has been passed from one generation to the next in an Iranian influenced environment and is not limited to geographical borders. It may include elements from the past and present of Iranian arts, literature, music and history.
Filmmakers are encouraged to produce an innovative and empowering video that explores the ancient and contemporary components of Iranian Heritage, while creating a visual experience that sparks the audience's interest in learning more about the culture and history of Iran and how it is applicable and relevant to the world we live in today.
All submitted videos shall be judged for their artistry, quality, originality and most importantly, how much they inspire the audience.
The winner will receive $5,000USD, as well as travel expenses to attend the award presentation during the Farhang Foundation Noruz Gala, where the winner's film will be screened.
Submission deadline: February 14, 2009
