5th Return International Film & Art Festival
The 5th Return International Film & Art Festival warmly invites filmmakers, producers, and artists to submit their works for the upcoming edition of the festival. The event will take place from October 23rd to 25th, 2025, and offers an inspiring platform for creative voices from around the world.
Due to high demand last year, the submission deadline has been extended. Interested parties now have the opportunity to submit their films from March 1st to July 31st, 2025, via FilmFreeway.
This year's theme is: "Civilization: Did you read the terms & conditions?" Submitted films should not exceed a maximum length of 30 minutes and can be entered in the following categories:
Animation
Feature Film
Documentary
Additionally, as part of the festival, we would like to exhibit works in the fields of photography, illustration, and graphic art that engage with this year's theme. Interested artists can submit their works either via FilmFreeway or send us a link to their creations.
We recommend all participants familiarize themselves with the festival's rules and concept in advance.
For any questions, we are available at any time at info@returniaf.de.
We look forward to your creative contributions and are excited to see your unique perspectives on the theme of civilization!
