Call for Films — 52nd Deauville American Film Festival

In order to be con­sid­ered by the Selec­tion Com­mit­tee, sub­mit­ted films must meet the fol­low­ing requirements:

  • be fea­ture-length fic­tion films or doc­u­men­taries with a run­ning time of 75 min­utes or more. The Fes­ti­val does not screen short films.
  • be pro­duced, either whol­ly or par­tial­ly, by a U.S.-based com­pa­ny or a com­pa­ny of Amer­i­can origin.
  • be French pre­mieres and must not have par­tic­i­pat­ed in any major Euro­pean film fes­ti­val, unless oth­er­wise decid­ed by the Fes­ti­val Director.

Films must be sub­mit­ted exclu­sive­ly via a stream­ing link. If the orig­i­nal lan­guage of the film is nei­ther Eng­lish nor French, it must be sub­mit­ted with Eng­lish or French subtitles.
Select­ed films must be pre­sent­ed in Deauville in their orig­i­nal ver­sion with French sub­ti­tles. Sub­ti­tling costs are the respon­si­bil­i­ty of the par­tic­i­pants. All select­ed films will be screened in DCP format.

Films must be sub­mit­ted via the ded­i­cat­ed platform.
The Fes­ti­val does not charge any sub­mis­sion fee.
The sub­mis­sion dead­line is July 9, 2026.

The offi­cial announce­ment of the select­ed films will take place in August 2026. Par­tic­i­pants will be noti­fied by email of their film’s selec­tion pri­or to the offi­cial announcement.
