StAnza On Screen

Submissions to StAnza On Screen are currently closed and will re-open later this year.

Poetry films should be no longer than 6 minutes and should have captions or subtitles for anything spoken. We ask for only one film per person or group. We are looking for submissions that are poetry films and utilise both poetry and film conventions and elements. We are not looking for poetry readings to camera or image collages.

Our next submission window will open late 2026, with the deadline of 17:00 31st January 2027. Unfortunately, we cannot consider submissions outside this window.

If you have any questions, get in touch with our team at stanza@stanzapoetry.org.
