The Experimental Film and Video Festival in Seoul (Korea) is accepting films until March 20, 2026.

About the festival:
Experimental Film and Video Festival in Seoul, a.k.a EXiS, was founded in 2004 by Moving Image Forum in order to screen experimental films and contemporary moving images that explore the unknown forms and territories of cinema. We value artists’ films made with an original vision that take challenges and aesthetic adventures. They are one of the few places in Asia that still screen works of many important artists who work with celluloid film.

– Non-English or Non-Korean speaking films must have English subtitles.
– The applicant will guarantee to have secured clearance from the copyright holders of any copyrighted materials included within the submitted film and any photographs submitted relating to the film for all purposes for which the materials will be used such as screening, promotion, and publications. EXiS bears no responsibility for any damages or costs due to any illegal acts or violation of copyright.
– Once the shortlists are announced, the shortlisted films cannot be withdrawn from the festival.
– Submission Fee: FREE
– Deadline: March 20, 2026
