What is DVMISSION?

DVMISSION is a 48-hour film competition based on the south coast of the UK that has for the last 17 years been challenging filmmakers to get creative and join a local community of creative media makers.

We give challengers a line of dialogue, a title and a genre and they make a 2-minute film in 48 hours.

We then get our judges to award the coveted Pompey Oscars for 14 categories of prizes.

The 2021 Challenge Obstructions were:

Genre: Cold War Spy Movie

Title: Deception Point

Dialogue: “Do you know what love is? I’ll tell you: it is whatever you can still betray.”

Extra Obstruction*: an eastern European location

*The extra obstruction is for previous winners.

We asked challengers to share their behind-the-scenes stories with us to be eligible for the SOCIAL MEDIA AWARD us the hashtag #DVMISSION21

Previous Events

In 2020 we saved the city from an invasion of alien robots for THE DAY THAT POMEPY STOOD STILL a take on the classic sci-fi film The Day the earth Stood Still complete with a killer robot (seriously – take a look at the highlights video).

In 2019 we took you into the murky world of downtown 1960’s Tokyo for POMPEY DRIFTER, a noirish vision of the swinging sixties, for a night of high drama.

In 2018 we brought you FROM DUSK TILL DAWN OF THE DEAD and asked you to imagine how it would be if George A. Romero had teamed up with Quentin Tarantino and then we created that story world.

In 2017 we staged DA DA LAND and asked you to imagine what it would have been like if David Lynch directed La La Land then we threw you into an imaginary world of Lynchian characters.

DVMISSION PRESENTS is a night of boutique immersive cinema in which the audience becomes part of the narrative. Watch short films produced by local filmmakers especially for the night and vote for the best in our “The audience raved about it” award!

Who will be this year’s winners of the much-coveted Pompey Oscars?
