“The role of the artist is to not look away.” – Akira Kurosawa
Voyage in Time Film Festival is a traveling international film festival, taking place each year in a different location around the world, dedicated to cinematic works that explore time, memory, and transformation.
The festival invites filmmakers from around the world to present films that move beyond conventional storytelling – works that observe, drift, reflect, and unfold through image, rhythm, and presence. We welcome all genres and forms: narrative, experimental, documentary, hybrid, and works that exist between definitions. Feature films, short films, video art, and animation are accepted.
We are particularly interested in films that engage with time as a material, works that explore memory, absence, and transformation, cinematic languages that challenge structure and expectation, and personal and poetic approaches to filmmaking. No premiere status is required.
The festival does not present competitive awards. Selected films become part of a curated official program, presented alongside filmmakers and audiences.
