As of November, the market share for Korean films in the domestic market stood at 55 percent, which indicates that the yearly market share of Korean films will be over 50 percent for the third year in a row. In the international arena as well, Korean films were invited to major international film festivals including Cannes, Berlin, Venice, Locarno, and San Sebastian and received a warm reception from critics and audiences. It is often said that the current prosperity of Korean cinema is due to the strong commitment and policies introduced by the KIM Dae-joong government in 1999 to promote Korean films.

Please feel free to reach out to any of the writers listed here to request a copy of their scripts.

The Competition is open to feature-length scripts in the genres of drama, comedy, sci-fi, and horror; teleplay pilots and specs, short scripts, stage plays, fiction podcast scripts, and digital series scripts. Year after year, our strive in programming the Austin Film Festival film slate is to discover and champion the writers and those who can translate amazing stories to the screen. We received over 5,000 film submissions this year and had the task of whittling it down to 182 films that embody our mission and passion for storytelling. It was a harrowing task, but it led to our strongest year of film yet. We’re so proud of this year’s diverse group of filmmakers and unique voices and can’t wait for these works to be seen, shared, and loved.

  • The Nemesis As the Protagonistʼs 'Shadowʼ
    The Nemesis as the Protagonistʼs ‘Shadowʼ Scott Myers Want drama? Ask your Protagonist: What do you fear the most? Then put them in a story where they have to confront that fear: Their Nemesis. A few years ago, I gave a series of presentations at the Austin Film Festival, the London Screenwritersʼ Festival, and the Willamette Writers Conference. One subject I explored at all the events was this: How to write a worthy Nemesis. Itʼs a critical concern because apart from your Protagonist, the Nemesis is often the most important character in your story. Indeed, Hollywood has a special affinity for Nemesis characters. First off, some of the most memorable figures in movie history have been Nemeses: From Darth Vader [Star Wars: Episode IV — A New Hope] and the Wicked Witch of the West [The Wizard of Oz], to Nurse Ratched [One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest] and Mr. Potter [It’s a Wonderful Life], to the Alien [Alien] and the Shark [Jaws], Nemesis characters cast a long shadow within the stories they inhabit and outside in the imaginations of movie viewers. Second, actors love to play Bad Guys and Gals. Itʼs interesting, even fun to explore the dark side of a characterʼs psyche, allowing the actor to dredge up and use powerful negative energy. When a script pings into a studio exec or producerʼs email inbox that has a well-crafted, multidimensional, and captivating Nemesis, ones such as Gordon Gekko [Wall Street], the Joker [The Dark Knight Rises], and Hans Gruber [Die Hard], that is a plus because Hollywood players know those roles will appeal to name talent.

  • Finding Neighbors
    FINDING NEIGHBORS Written and Directed by Ron Judkins 96 minutes / HD / Color / USA / 1.78:1 / 5.1 Surround (English) CONTACT JUDY KORIN Neighbors Working Together LLC [email protected] phone: 323.646.7747 www.FindingNeighborsMovie.com f /FindingNeighborsMovie l @Neighbors_Movie LOGLINE Finding Neighbors is the story of a formerly acclaimed graphic novelist who goes looking for true connection outside of his marriage, and over the fence. SYNOPSIS Sam Tucker (Oscar® nominee Michael O’Keefe, The Great Santini), a successful stay-at- home graphic novelist, has hit a mid-life and creative crisis. Six months late on the deadline of his latest novel, Sam has already created turmoil with his publisher after his last book was a disaster. When his therapist wife Mary (Catherine Dent, TV’s The Shield) starts to suspect Sam of having an affair with Sherrie, his provocative and willing next-door neighbor, she’s surprised to find out he’s actually spending all of his time with a man. Jeff, his gay fellow “housewife” neighbor, is a fan of Sam’s published works. As his friendship with Jeff grows and he begins to recapture his creative fire, Sam finds he may be losing the one thing he never doubted: his marriage. A touching and comedic drama about friendship and confidence, FINDING NEIGHBORS is writer/director Ron Judkins’s first feature since his acclaimed The Hi-Line from 1999. In the meantime he’s remained quite busy in his parallel career as a sound mixer, winning a pair of Oscars® for Saving Private Ryan and Jurassic Park.
