Last chance: Win a screening on Prime Video's FEAR

We are sending you a reminder of the amazing opportunity for filmmakers at the FEAR HORROR SHORT FESTIVAL 2023! By submitting a short horror film, there is a chance to be broadcast on the PRIME VIDEO channel FEAR. The Prime Video horror channel FEAR is looking for talent in the Netherlands and Belgium and offers them a chillingly beautiful platform. Filmmakers have only this month left to submit a short film for the very first edition of the Fear Horror Short Festival. In addition to a chance at prize money, awards granted by a professional jury, and eternal fame, their films will be seen by a large horror-loving audience on the Prime Video horror channel FEAR. The deadline for submissions for the Fear Horror Short Festival 2023 is September 30 via https://fearhorrorfestival.nl/. The submitted film must be a (reasonably) recent original/original work with a length of at least 5 and a maximum of 20 minutes. The language of instruction may be Dutch or English. The theme is horror/thriller, but that is of course as broad as you wish. From a blunt-axe serial killer to a romantic zombie swoon-worthy drama, from a hilarious Halloween spoof to a child-friendly slasher or a musical exorcism: the only limitation on the genre boundary is the maker's imagination. For all competition terms and conditions, the technical details the submitted film must meet, and for entries, see https://fearhorrorfestival.nl/

Special Icelandic-Dutch Co-production at NFF

This year, the NFF is screening several new international films in which Dutch cast and crew members have worked. Also showing is A Letter from Helga by Icelandic director Ása Helga Hjörleifsdóttir, a special Icelandic-Dutch co-production in which many Dutch crew members participated. Cinematography is by Jasper Wolf in collaboration with colorist Laurens Orij, camera assistant Pancsi Puts, and gaffer Bram van Woudenberg. Sound was handled by Oliver Pattinama and Pieter van Huijstee Jr. Hair and make-up were provided by Evalotte Oosterop and Iris Bosman. A Letter from Helga is an ode to the overwhelmingly beautiful Icelandic landscape, which, in all its wildness, forms the ideal backdrop for the equally stormy and painful love story of Bjarni and Helga. Based on the 2010 novel of the same name by Bergsveinn Birgisson. The film won two Eddas (the Icelandic Golden Calf) for best acting performances. The film premiered at the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival, after which it was selected by the Seattle and Santa Barbara International Film Festivals in the USA. In the Netherlands, the film has been selected for Film by the Sea in Vlissingen and will also be screened during the NFF on September 23 at 4:00 PM. Dutch producers Dirk Rijneke and Mildred van Leeuwaarden (Rotterdam Films), who are attached to the project, will be present at the Q&A afterwards and talk about the special collaboration with Iceland. https://www.rotterdamfilms.com/films/a-letter-to-helga/
