Winner Best Short Film of the month

« Retrospective of Jupiter is one of the rare venues that treats both viewers and filmmakers with respect. As a filmmaker that’s something I could tell immediately from the initial communication, and it carried all the way through our film’s distribution. As a viewer, the films curated on their website are consistently above the daily hum. In an ever expanding galaxy of movies it’s necessary for a platform like R.o.J. to exist – handpicked, carefully considered short films for the discerning viewer. Enjoy. »

Vote for Best Short Film of the month - Retrospective of Jupiter

Before you submit your film, please consider

  • Whether created years ago or just newly rendered is not important.
  • We demand that all films have all the necessary rights (for publication), including music, in order for us to present them on our platform. We assume no responsibility for published films on the platform.
  • We only publish films which are free for audiences.
  • We charge a submission fee of $35 (USD).
    Unfortunately we cannot refund a submission fee after you have submitted your film and there is no guarantee that your work will be shown on our platform.

We would like to avoid

As the presented films are as diverse as our audience, there is no rule of thumb on Retrospective of Jupiter. However, we would like to point out the following does not match our basic concept:

  • Commercial pieces or purely promotional films (Branded films excluded)
    If you have a commercial, you are welcome to submit it to our Contest for the Best Commercial.
  • Timelapse or travel photography films
  • Vlogs
  • Tutorials
  • Comedy sketches based on a single punchline

Where should I upload my film before submitting?

We prefer films which are uploaded on Vimeo or YouTube. If your film is not yet released, you can put it on YouTube – unpublished and only accessible via link (setting it to unlisted).
