Catalyst International Film Festival presents a film programme that prioritizes stories and storytellers currently under-represented on screen and behind the camera. We want to create a more inclusive industry and films screened here will promote gender equality, diversity and inclusion whether in content, key creative roles or crew. Catalyst is dedicated to addressing under-representation in GENDER, RACE, SOCIAL + ECONOMIC EXCLUSION, DISABILITY, AGE and SEXUAL ORIENTATION on and off screen. This is not a definitive list!
We are currently open for submissions for the 4th Catalyst International Film Festival 30|31 March & 01 April 2023.
