Filmmakers and artists are now invited to enter their films for the 19th edition of Berwick Film & Media Arts Festival, the UK’s festival of New Cinema taking place in early 2024.
All entries will be considered for the New Cinema Awards and site-specific single screen exhibition in Berwick-upon-Tweed during the Festival in early 2024. Rather than offering a single prize, chosen by a jury, all selected films are award winners and receive £400.

- Final Call (£20) Monday 6 November 2023

- No previous or scheduled UK film festival screenings before March 2024
- Not previously entered to the Festival
- Feature films must not have been theatrically released in the UK before March 2023
