MedFilm Festival to highlight intercultural dialogue

November's 14th annual MedFilm Festival in Rome gives film professionals in Europe and the Mediterranean - including Arab countries in North Africa - the opportunity to submit their works and compete for awards. The deadline for submissions is July 30.

MedFilm Festival, launched in 1995, features themes relating to intercultural dialogue, social change in Europe and the relations between the two shores of the Mediterranean. The 2008 Festival will honor the European Year of Intercultural Dialogue.

For the first time, the Festival will feature a Mediterranean Film Forum where film professionals can meet to discuss current productions and co-productions of Mediterranean films and about the possible outcome of these co-productions and related promotion campaigns.

The festival will be held in Rome, Italy from November 7 to 16. Applicants must fill out entry forms which can be found on the festival's Web site.
