FourDocs Goes Femme For Halloween

FourDocs, the broadband channel for documentary, is calling for short  
documentaries with compelling female subjects, with the best ones  
being shown at a special event as part of the 4th Halloween Short  
Film Festival in January 2007.

The films, which can be made by men or women, should be about women  
who define their own terms, and the focus of the screening will be on  
independence and DIY culture.  We're interested in subjects who  
surprise and surpass gender roles, whether involved with  
traditionally male-dominated pursuits or by reclaiming traditionally  
feminine activities. Films might be about women inspiring with their  
independence now, or historical looks at ladies who've set the DIY  
pace in their chosen vocation or art form.

Films must be documentaries, and ideally between three and five  
minutes, in order for them to be screened on the FourDocs website as  
well as at the Halloween festival. Submission is only via the upload  
form on <http://www.channel4.com/fourdocs> www.channel4.com/ 
fourdocs . Longer documentaries on DIY women will also be considered  
for the festival only via prior arrangement with Charlie Phillips at  
fourdocs at channel4.com

Deadline for entries is Friday Nov 17th. Any queries, please email  
fourdocs at channel4.com  For full details of the Halloween Short Film  
Festival see www.shortfilms.org.uk
