Film makers are invited to submit a proposal for making a film or series of films which celebrate and pay homage to Charlie Chaplin, his association with South Kerry and in particular Waterville, where he and his family visited for many years and made their second home.
The proposals should show how the film maker will imaginatively engage with the South Kerry community stretching from Cahersiveen to Waterville.
The film may be an animation, a short, or series of shorts, or a documentary. The selection panel is open on style and format.
The film(s) will be screened at the inaugural Charlie Chaplin Film festival at the end of August 2011.
It will be a strict condition of awarding a contract that the finished film will be ready for screening at the inaugural Chaplin Festival.
