Alchemy Film and Moving Image Festival is an international festival of experimental film and artists’ moving image. We welcome entries from any part of the world - we celebrate a diverse range of works: the visually experimental, quietly poetic, formally radical, psycho-geographical, politically activist, culturally subversive, psycho-spiritual, the alchemically volatile, the underground and bizarre.

This year our theme is the “Spiritus Mundi”, a historical term for the ‘World Soul’ or ‘Spirit of the World’. We're looking for the deep nature of substance, of film, of humanity, of luminosity and shadow. A spirit of universality and internationalism.

I would appreciate it very much if you could circulate the call forentries to other filmmakers you know, or within your social networks - we very much rely on word of mouth:
