Inviting dance films from around the world for the 7th edition of Frame Rush 2025, taking place at The Place in London this September.

Where: The Place, London, United Kingdom

When: 19 September 2025

Deadline for applications: 31 March 2025

Frame Rush is an annual festival of screendance works programmed by the MA students at London Contemporary Dance School. The event will be a live sharing of the works in central London with a potential hybrid component.

What are we looking for?
This year, we’re excited to invite artists to submit their films that share impactful stories. We’re open to a wide range of themes, including identity, community, culture, political commentary, and social or psychological topics. We will consider any style, technique, or budget equally.
We truly believe in the power of screendance, so we encourage all filmmakers to think about how their work might fit into our festival, whether it showcases dance, movement, or powerful visual imagery.
