We are delighted to announce a Call for Entries for the 4th Insight Film Festival.

Selected films will be screened at the Insight Festival taking place in Spring 2013, with opportunities to win some fantastic awards and prizes.

Insight wants to encourage film makers to make films about ‘faith’: films which, challenge, explore, critique, reflect, celebrate or question this vital area of contemporary life.

It is our aim to promote discussion and community cohesion through film, and we need your films to do this!

By submitting a film your work could be seen by our high profile judging panel and win one of our prestigious awards.

Previous judges have included Hollywood producer Gary Kurtz (Star Wars, American Graffiti), screenwriter David Weiss, (Shrek 2, The Smurfs), Aaqil Ahmed (Head of BBC Religion), Tina Gharavi (Documentary Film Maker) and many others.

Awards made at the 3rd Insight Festival in December 2011 included £1000 cash, an expenses paid summer workshop at EICAR The International Film & Television School in Paris, and a place on the jury at the Religion Today festival in Italy.

The 4th Insight Festival will take place in spring 2013. We will shortly be announcing judges and awards.
