The Pan-African Biennale has issued an open call for short films, encompassing documentary and hybrid forms. This is a global invitation, with no geographic restriction stated. The Biennale's institutional scope is Pan-African, suggesting a curatorial framework attentive to African and diasporic perspectives, though the call itself does not specify thematic constraints. As the deadline and fee status are currently unknown, artists should consult the Biennale's official channels for definitive submission parameters. The absence of a stated prize does not diminish the value of selection; biennale inclusion often carries significant curatorial weight and visibility within contemporary art and film circuits. The call is for short films, a format that demands formal precision and concision. Hybrid works—those that blur documentary and fiction, or incorporate experimental strategies—are explicitly welcomed, indicating a jury receptive to expanded nonfiction practices. This is an opportunity for practitioners whose work engages with the moving image as a critical and aesthetic medium.
