The Selection Process

Selections for the TromaDance Film Festival are judged by an official selection committee brought together specifically for this purpose. Films are judged based on artistic merit and originality. Your film need not include sex and violence!

TromaDance receives hundreds of entries every year, and the selection committee views each and every one of them. (Note: Lloyd Kaufman has no involvement in the selection process.) Various levels of selection are used to determine the final films to be screened. Unfortunately, due to the number of entries received, we cannot communicate with filmmakers as to the status of their film. If your film is selected for TromaDance, we will contact you using the information provided on the official entry form.
