Screenwriting competition
The Broaden Your Horizons screenwriting competition is designed to inspire writers to keep writing. One great story simply isn't enough to advance in this industry. That is why we make the multiple submissions process easier and more affordable. Our winners also enjoy a cultural escape to work on their next big hit.
​
DIFF's Screenplay Competition is currently accepting submissions for feature films, short films, and TV pilots.
All entries are eligible for optional feedback from professional readers (highly recommended).
​
Let us help improve your scripts while you grow your portfolio.
