The PLURAL + MOLDOVA Video Festival aims at promoting youth in addressing the issues of integration, identity, diversity, human rights and social cohesiveness around the globe by recognizing youth as engines for social change in a world that is often characterized by segregation, divisions and intolerance, the organizers say in a press release. The Youth of Moldova are invited to submit a short video (1 to 5 minutes) of any style or genre (animation, documentary, drama etc.) on their thoughts, experiences, opinions, questions and suggestions on these issues, and on promoting agreeable and beneficial coexistence in diverse cultural and religious contexts. The PLURAL+MOLDOVA Video Festival is open to young individuals from: 9 - 25 years old, and will give participants two ways to enter: Nationally and Internationally. Submissions are open until November 15, 2010. The Award Ceremony will take place on December 16, in celebration of International Migrants Day on December 18.
