www.realtimefilmfestival.com/ www.facebook.com/realtimeinternationalfilmfestival/ twitter.com/realtimefest www.instagram.com/realtimefilmfestivalWelcome to the 6th edition of the Realtime International Film Festival (RTF)
Our vision is “to build a truly International, all - inclusive and remotely accessible Film Festival”.
Our corporate VISION is “to become the most acclaimed technology – driven, remotely accessible Festival in Africa with a keen interest in Cultural & Creative Arts".
In response to the global pandemic, we had an innovative ONLINE film Festival from April 7th to 14th, 2020. This was done in line with our emphasis on remote-accessibility and the use of technology to break barriers. The scheme was "HUMANITY C.A.N"
Awards were presented to outstanding films screened at the #RTF2020 remote access edition in an innovative online Awards Ceremony done via ZOOM. We believe we have redefined the festival landscape for good.
Our MISSION is to champion an Artistic baseline where equity and openness is enhanced among Creative Artists, Filmmakers & Film Enthusiasts; in other words, a platform "Where everyone feels equal"
'Our LANGUAGE is "ART", our MEDIUM is "TECHNOLOGY" and we celebrate the "HUMAN TALENTS" responsible for churning out "ARTISTIC FILMS"
The Festival accepts entries from filmmakers across the world without discrimination. We also offer waivers for submission fees to filmmakers from countries like Iran, Pakistan and others who can't pay for submissions due to limitations caused by sanctions imposed on their countries.
We celebrate the FILMS (especially Artistic Films) and their MAKERS. We also celebrate and expose current TECHNOLOGIES that affect the art of film making, and also of experiencing films that have been made. That's our focus hence, we do not seek to be the most glamorous Festival, but rather, the most all-inclusive, most Innovative, and most Eco-friendly and "Technology attentive" Festival in Africa that attracts the world!

IMPORTANT NOTE (Before you submit)
1. As a festival, we are obliged to screen selected films, but we DO NOT screen any movie outside the submission window for a given edition (year) hence, films submitted in a given year can and shall not be shown at our festival or any related event, afterwards.
2. We often use clips, stills and photographs from submitted movies for Festival-related "visuals" including posters, banners and electronic displays - all geared towards promoting and publicizing the festival. We also use extracted sequences with a maximum duration of 20 seconds - from submitted films; for the purpose of promotions and publicity as well.
