JEONJU International Film Festival’s industry program “JEONJU Project” has opened its call to recruit new projects for JEONJU Cinema Project: Next Edition in anticipation of its 15th year in 2023. JEONJU Cinema Project: Next Edition aims to discover and invest outstanding original projects as well as creators, thereby laying a strong foundation for film productions in both domestic and international film industries.

The submissions for JEONJU Cinema Project: Next Edition 2023, which the JEONJU International Film Festival will invest up to 100 million KRW per project, will close at 17:00 (KST) on January 9, 2023. Out of the submitted feature projects in development or production, one Korean project and one international project that can hold their world premieres at the 2024 JEONJU International Film Festival will be selected.

JEONJU Cinema Project: Next Edition welcomes submissions of narrative films, documentaries, and experimental films, and does not limit the eligibility in terms of genres. The selected works will get to hold business meetings with both domestic and international industry professionals through the JEONJU Project, the industry program at the JEONJU International Film Festival.

Alan Martin SEGAL’s Via Negativa and Ted FENDT Outside Noise are some of the films that received the fund from JEONJU Cinema Project in the past and had their world premieres at the JEONJU International Film Festival.
