Some of the best public health films from around the country and world will be shown at APHA’s 139th Annual Meeting this fall, and now is the time to submit entries for consideration.

For the eighth year, APHA’s Public Health Education and Health Promotion Section is accepting submissions for its annual film festival. Organized by the Section’s Health Communications Working Group, the APHA Film Festival is touted as the nation’s first and only film festival dedicated to public health. Last year, the festival featured more than 40 films and videos and 500 attendees.

Selected films will be shown during the Annual Meeting, which will be held Oct. 29–Nov. 2 in Washington, D.C.

Films should be created for audiences in the United States but do not need to be in English. Productions should be recent — no more than three years old — and must address a public health issue. Documentaries about global health issues are also sought for the international portion of the festival.

“Our goal is to get effective tools into the hands of people who are working hard to address our nation’s health problems,” said Gary Black, one of the organizers of the Film Festival.

The deadline for submissions is April 1. For more details or to submit an entry to the film festival, visit http://apha.confex.com/apha/139am/ff.htm.
