High demand from all over the world: At the request of numerous film makers the backup_festival has extended the deadline: Shortfilm makers now have the opportunity to submit their work until the 15th of March 2010.

Two months before the start of the backup_festival 2010, new submissions from all over the world arrive day by day. For the first time, backup is addressed exclusively to students and alumni from art, film and media schools.

As the current semester projects are being finished at the moment, backup received numerous requests to extend the deadline for entries. And as backup is looking forward to seeing many interesting projects from all over the world, the team has decided to extend the deadline for the backup.award and the backup.clip.award by 14 days, new deadline is the 15th of March!

The 12th backup_festival takes place in Weimar from 6th - 9th of May 2010.
