“Grounded” is a FREE to enter project organised by Marbella International Film Festival, trading name of New World Trust, a not for profit organisation that supports many different programmers and initiatives within the industry.

Grounded is aiming to provide a record of these unusual times, caused by Coronavirus which has forced the population to self isolate and remain at home.

The project is supported by many organisations and individuals and is open to everyone who wishes to create a film during the period of isolation.

The film can be made individually or with the help of others who are self isolating, on any subject matter and any genres, using cameras, or mobile phones, or computer generated animation, in any language with running time between 2 to 15 minutes.

All submissions would be previewed and short listed before appearing on MIFF site which would be open to public for viewing.

The selected films would be assessed by panel of judges and short listed for the GFF award to be presented at the awards ceremony.

The finalists would receive an awards certificate authenticated by the Marbella International Film Festival to be displayed on social media as well as other sites.
