Identity

How does one identify? Merriam-Webster defines identity as “the distinguishing character or personality of an individual”. What do we consider our distinguishing characteristics? Do we define ourselves by where we are from? Gender, race, orientation? Or maybe our careers and hobbies? Identity is vital to our senses of self, community, and ambitions.

Terre da Film Festival
Category:
Type:
Eligibility:
THEME
The historical period in which we live is inevitably leading us to ask ourselves again who we are and where we put ourselves in the world. In addition to asking ourselves who we are today, we must also ask ourselves what our relationship is with others and how to include them in our lives.
At its first edition, Terre da Film Festival focuses on the theme of the IDENTITY.
Identity as choice.
Identity as a mirror.
Identity as a departure or a new point of arrival.
Identity of a place or a dear event.
Identity as a condition of perpetual searching.
We select short films that speak of them in a broad sense. We want to find new expressions, visual experimentation of stories that interface with the theme of the research of an identity.
Mixed techniques, use of unconventional tools (smartphone, action cam, film...) will be highly appreciated. In general, we care about developing research on the medium being used.
We select short films of maximum 30 minutes. All types of language are allowed. We decided, for this first edition of TDFF, to select shorts films for a single uncategorized competition. We want to amaze our public and ourselves.
The winner of the TDFF will receive 300 Euros and a gift from one of our sponsor.
The second place of the TDFF will receive 150 Euros and a gift from one of our sponsor.
The third place of the TDFF will receive a gift from one of our sponsor.
The first 8/10 films selected for the projection will be featured and presented in the program of TDFF during live screening events in the public spaces of the city.

Green Hill Gallery EXHIBITION SPRING 2021
Category:
Eligibility:
Green Hill Gallery is pleased to announce the open call for the new exhibition on the topic of identity, connectivity and community. This exhibition wants to be a journey in the discovery of what identity means nowadays and how it can be influenced by changes, as well as by the way one connects with oneself, others and the outside world. It challenges artists to explore the confrontation between showing oneself to oneself and showing oneself to others.
We invite emerging and established artists working in any medium from Berlin and from all over the world to participate in this call, as long as the topic is explored through the artwork. Please be aware that, since the Green Hill Gallery is run by the non-profit organization Kulturschöpfer e.V., accepted artists living outside Berlin will have to take care of the transportation of their artworks.
The exhibition will be displayed in our Green Hill Gallery and will be part of our diverse identity project. The project will entail additional events to explore the concept of identity and connectivity from different perspectives (online and/or offline, depending on the Coronavirus regulations).
