ABOUT US
Video Power is an non-profit organization based in Maastricht.
We focus on supporting filmmakers whose drive is deeply personal and who shape the meaning of their films organically.
As a creative sparring partner, we specialize in gearing production and distribution to the specific nature of each project.
We encourage the rallying around and the community building around process-driven filmmaking and experimental practices through events, workshops, screenings and talks.
Since 2013, Video Power has produced films that put across a distinct view of the world and are recognized on leading national and international stages.
FOR FILMMAKERS
Passionate about an idea but feel like you could use a sparring partner? Looking for technical support and the guidance of one of our experienced producers?
Video Power is open to any genre or experience level. All you need is love for cinema, a strong personal drive and the willingness to put in the hours.

*Please note that Video Power does not consider spontaneous submissions. Projects are selected through either the pitches or open calls.

FOR FILM LOVERS
Our films can be seen in many different places, from A-list festival to art spaces, from tv programs to community center.
Although our films are quite diverse, what binds them is their willingness to go beyond conventional narrative forms in order to express a unique personal perspective.
