Indigenous filmmakers in particular are invited to submit their films. The festival is open to all genres: documentary, fiction, animated films, short films and feature films. The focus in Window Rock will be on films by Indigenous directors or producers that address nuclear issues, as well as films by non-Indigenous directors or producers that focus on Indigenous peoples affected by uranium mining or the nuclear industry.

 

Filmmakers and producers can submit their films via Filmfreeway. The earlier, the better. Deadline September 1, 2026.

 

"Being part of the Window Rock international Uranium Film Festival was a truly fantastic experience. The entire event felt natural, welcoming, and incredibly authentic. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly received—both as filmmakers and as human beings whose stories matter. What stood out most was the spirit of the festival. It’s not just about films, but about people, community, and the real struggles and resilience behind these stories. The organizers, the audience, and the fellow filmmakers created an atmosphere that was honest, supportive, and deeply respectful of the work being shared. I’m grateful to have been included. It was an honor to screen our film at Window Rock, and I would gladly be part of this festival again. I highly recommend it to any filmmaker working in environmental, Indigenous, or human rights storytelling.  Guy Morgan, Director of the award winning  Documentary "If the silence could be broken".
