The submission period for the Greenmotions Filmfestival 2026<\/strong> has officially begun. Participation is open to all. The festival welcomes films produced using any technique, including animation, documentary, drama, experimental or artistic films, and hybrid work, regardless of budget size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are looking for films for our four different categories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Short film<\/strong>
– Kids & young audience short film<\/strong>
– Feature film<\/strong>
– Special Topic 2026 „RECOGNITION: Shining a Light on the Invisible“<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first three categories focus on the general environmental and sustainability themes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this year\u2019s Special Topic, \u201cRecognition: Shining a Light on the Invisible\u201d, the Greenmotions Filmfestival focuses on people and realities that often remain unseen – even though they sustain our societies and our shared wellbeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From unpaid care workers to marginalized communities, we highlight stories of struggle, resilience, and dignity. We explore who is recognized, who is overlooked, and why – and how systems of power and inequality contribute to invisibility. By giving space to unheard voices, we aim to foster empathy, critical reflection, and solidarity – and to inspire action toward a more just, inclusive, and sustainable world. A more detailed description of our special topic can be found here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can submit your movie via Filmfreeway<\/a><\/strong>. The submission period is open until April 16. 2026<\/strong>. You can check out our terms and conditions<\/strong> here<\/a>. We are looking forward of all the exciting and wonderful submissions for this year’s festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
