The CounterCorp Anti-Corporate Film Festival is a three-day series of film screenings, panel discussions, and related events held every year in May in San Francisco, USA. The inaugural CounterCorp Festival took place in 2006.
The Festival is open to U.S. and foreign-made, feature-length and short, narrative (fictional) and documentary films — including animated and experimental works. Non-English films must have English subtitles.
Beginning in January 2010, the Festival is adopting a "rolling" submissions policy with no fixed deadline for entries — filmmakers and distributors are invited to submit films at any time of the year.
Depending on when we receive the films, we will consider them either for possible inclusion in the next Festival, or for one of several single-night screenings we organize during the year.
To submit a film for consideration, please use the contact form to send an e-mail under the "Festival submissions" category.
CounterCorp also welcomes suggestions for Festival films. Please e-mail us with as much of the following information as possible:
- Name of the film (in English and original language, if different)
- Approximate running time
- A brief description
- Director's name
- Year of release
- Country of origin (and original language, if other than English)
- Name of production and/or distribution company
- Why you think it fits in the CounterCorp Festival
Corporate Film Festival — and remember to buy local!
