About This Scholarship

The Young Filmmakers Contest is a competition organized by the National Coalition Against Censorship (NCAC) and the National Museum of Women in the Arts (NMWA) to promote free expression and creativity among young filmmakers.  The Young Filmmakers Contest invites students to create short films that explore the theme of censorship and its impact on society. The films can be in any genre, including narrative, documentary, experimental, or animation, and can be no longer than five minutes.

The Young Filmmakers Contest provides an excellent opportunity for high school students to showcase their creative talents and express their views on issues related to censorship and free expression. Interested students should visit the NCAC or NMWA website for more information on the application process and eligibility criteria.
