INDAF Film Festival

INDAF Film Festival INDAF Independent Film Festival The festival will take place in El Taller multi-space, located in the multicultural neighbourhood of Kaimakli, Nicosia.

INDAF Independent Film Festival is an artist-led independent film festival that showcases emerging and established filmmakers by screening shorts and other parallel activities, in a polymorphic 3-day program, which will take place on 22-24/06/2023 in Kaimakli, Nicosia, Cyprus. We invite filmmakers from all over the world to submit their films, ranging from Documentaries, Animation, Fiction & Exper

imental short films

In times where commercialization is draining the creative space and conventional cinema is moving in a trajectory far away from both the pure Art of Cinema and the Community, obtaining a rather shallow, hyperreal and fast-paced approach. On the contrary, recent technological advances have arguably made the means of producing imagery much more accessible to the public, and we are keen believers that exceptional Art exists in small-scale independent productions;. Thus, as INDAF, we are consciously turning our focus towards aspiring creators who are immersed in experimental, ground-breaking, boundary-pushing short films. The space itself is a huge industrial establishment, and it can be found a few metres away from the UN-controlled buffer zone, a fact which makes the sole act of hosting a cultural event much more fundamental.

Cinema Without Borders: 4-Day Filmmaking Workshop by Adonis Sergiou !! Open to all, from beginners to professionals, students to seasoned filmmakers.

The workshop aims to make filmmaking accessible to everyone, regardless of their background or experience level, by teaching how to create engaging stories in just four days with limited resources at hand.

Emphasizing creativity over budget, participants will learn to turn limitations into strengths, using normal, professional, experimental, and unconventional resources which will all be owned or found by the participants, to produce an original short film. We aim to emphasize the importance of utilizing the strengths of each individual to create something unique.

This workshop is anchored in the belief that storytelling is universal and accessible. It challenges conventional notions of filmmaking by highlighting the power of limitations as a creative tool. We want to have a supportive environment where every participant, irrespective of their skill level, can contribute meaningfully to the filmmaking process.

Finally and most importantly, this workshop aims to be a reminder that filmmaking is never really a mechanical process, it's when a group of people learn to trust each other and together perform miracles.

Thursday (DEVELOPMENT/PRE-PRODUCTION)
18:30-22:00 Introduction, Script Development, Discuss Equipment at Our Disposal

Friday (DEVELOPMENT/PRE-PRODUCTION/PRODUCTION)
