Plural+ Youth Video Festival for Young Filmmakers Worldwide (All Expenses Paid to Plural+ Awards Ceremony)

Applications are now open for the 2024 PLURAL+ Youth Video Festival. PLURAL+ is a youth video festival that encourages and empowers global youth to explore the issues of migration, diversity, social inclusion, and the prevention of xenophobia and to share their creative vision with the world.

Requirements

The PLURAL+ Youth Video Festival (hereinafter referred to as “PLURAL+”) is open to young people of all nationalities with a keen interest in the cross-cutting issues of migration, diversity, social inclusion, and the prevention of xenophobia.

Entrants to PLURAL+ must be no older than 25 years old at the time of the production of their videos.

PLURAL+ is organized into three age categories:

12 years old and under

13 to 17 years old

18 to 25 years old

Benefits

Recipients of the International Jury Distinctions and Special Recognitions are invited to the location of the PLURAL+ Ceremony, all expenses paid. (While the venue may occasionally change, most of the past Ceremonies have been hosted in New York.)

The invitation covers the travel and accommodation expenses of 1 person per video only. If you submit a video as a group, only 1 person will be invited to receive the recognition on behalf of the entire group and therefore only 1 person will be covered to travel. Other members of the group are welcome to attend the Ceremony at their own expense. In the case of participants under the age of 18, the invitation will also cover the travel and accommodation costs of an adult chaperone (parent or legal guardian).

Video Types:

PLURAL+ video entries must be:

Between one (1) and five (5) minutes in length, including title(s) and opening/closing credits. If an entry is slightly below or above the aforementioned time limit, it will be reviewed and evaluated on a case-to-case basis at the discretion of the PLURAL+ team.

In English or include English subtitles
Produced after 1 January

2021.

In addition, PLURAL+ video entries can be of any genre (animation, documentary, music video, comedy, etc.) as long as they have the potential to make the audience think in constructive ways about the PLURAL+ themes – migration, diversity, social inclusion, and the prevention of xenophobia.

If selected, entrants must be prepared to submit a digital copy of their video in either of the following formats: MOV (preferred), MP4, AVI, QT, MKV, or FLV. Full HD (1920×1080) or higher is preferred but not required.

Submission Requirements
