Hi all -
We'd hoped to be sending selection notifications out today for CineKink NYC 2017, but alas!
We've been simply overwhelmed with the number of submissions this year, a good jump from last, and are still making our way through some of them, reviewing, juggling, trying to find a clear through-line for the festival program. This is always a daunting process, made all the worse this season by malingering disbelief/horror at the results of the election and, in my case, the head-muddling effects of a vicious cold/flu.
Consequently, we're going to spend a little bit more time with your works, holding our notifications for later next week, aiming for next Friday, February 3rd. We know that you're eager to find out whether your work has been included and we'll get the news to you even earlier if it's at all possible.
Since your information may have changed since you submitted your work, please notify us asap if you have any upcoming festival screenings and/or premieres that may complicate showing your work during CineKink.
In particular, we'd like to know of any local bookings, and ask that you avoid any NYC screenings in the weeks before our festival. Feel free to check in with any questions on this.
In the meantime, a reminder that CineKink NYC, our 14th annual, runs March 14-19, 2017. Here's an overview of the festivities:

For those of you out of town and pondering lodging, the bulk of our activities will be taking place in the East Village. Our primary theater, the Anthology Film Archives, is at 32 Second Avenue (& Second Street), NYC. Everything is pretty accessible via subway and/or taxi, but we have a few links to suggested accommodations on the CineKink website: http://cinekink.com/programs-and-events/nyc/accomodations.
While we aren't able to assist with any travel expenses, we do provide all selected filmmakers with an all-access pass to CineKink NYC...and can pretty much guarantee a good time!
Again, we will be getting back to you with more information as soon as we've got it.
Thanks so much for your participation...and your patience!
Best,
Lisa
