Under the tagline “film from the other side of the world”, SouthBorder Distribution seeks content from countries outside of the first world and from filmmakers that portray different points of views, representing new and innovative ways of conceiving cinema.
SouthBorder Distribution is a Latin American distribution company based in Santiago de Chile that licenses short films for comercial distribution in different territories and outlets. We are looking for films that come from that part of the world which identifies itself as “south of the border”. It’s an open call for filmmakers from Ibero America, Africa, Asia, Middle East, Oceania, and those the are represented by the same feeling. We don’t exclude based on country of origin, but please keep in mind what we stand for. If you want to show the world in a different way, if you feel connected to our tag line or if, at some level, it makes sense to you than you should send us your film for consideration.
We work with independent filmmakers and small production companies that are looking to commercialise their films in order to gain a fair and sustainable revenue. This process starts with the acquisition of content and continues with the licensing of international rights and its sale to different territories. Some of these outlets may include:
- National and International Networks.
- Online and streaming platforms.
- VOD content providers.
- Educational and cultural programs.
- Films societies.
- Home Entertainment.
- Non theatrical public and private screenings.
- Non traditional exhibitions such as transportation and stationary screens.
We are looking for:
- Spanish, french and english speaking films, or any language movies that have spanish, french or english subtitles.
- Films up to 30 minutes.
- Premiere date can't be older than 2017.
- Films that don't have distribution deals and have cleared rights for commercial use.
