Film: Submit films of five minutes or less. Send us your DVD to the address
above or direct us to your film on the web.

NOTES ON THE THEME:

The theme is Fight or Flight. Submissions must relate to the theme.
Submissions can relate to Fight, Flight, or both. (This means that it's okay to submit a lovely poem about flight, for example, with no mention at all of bloodshed and mayhem.)

We are excited by submissions that surprise us. Therefore, feel free to apply the theme loosely and liberally. Interpret it any way you like.

A special note on the “And So It Begins” category, 500 words that begin with
the first sentence, “There are three ways I can win this fight. You can go anywhere you want to with this. You don't need to write simply three ways to
win a fight. Be creative. Make it stretch to meet the story you want to tell.

The submission deadline is December 1, 2007. Original, unpublished material
is preferred, but reprints will be considered if author has the rights. The Big
Ugly Review is currently a non-paying market.
