An interesting Film Festival that I was asked to promote – which I have no problem with. I’d like to enter something like this, locally as well as internationally. The Oaxaca one looks to be an independent film-making festival that also promotes the culture of Mexico. I like that as well; for we try too many times to be like the guys from mainstream US – sorry guys, no offense.
Oaxaca, a main epicentre of culture in the Americas for centuries, is proud to announce the OAXACA INTERNATIONAL INDEPENDENT FILM AND VIDEO FESTIVAL.
Central Mexico is proud to host this premiere cinematic event, showcasing films exploring a broad range of subject matter and spanning multiple genres.
The Festival will also play host to the OAXACA INTERNATIONAL LITERATURE COMPETITION and will be held from November 8-11 of this year. For more information
Independent filmmakers from each continent will be competing for nearly $80,000 USD worth of cash and prizes with the winner of the prestigious AGAVE award for Best Film walking away with $10,000 USD cash, a complete travel package to and from the event, a special festival screening, syndicated media coverage, and a private screening with 25 of the industries top distribution executives.
Every film submitted to the 2010 Oaxaca International Independent Film and Video Festival is eligible for a private screening with all or part of the 25 top distribution executives upon request of said executives.
