Thanks to the generosity of TromaDance’s sponsors, once again there is NO CHARGE to filmmakers to submit their films to the selection committee, nor will the general public be charged for tickets.

TromaDance 2002 promises to be bigger, better, and bolder than last year’s highly successful event, attracting the attention of independent filmmakers and global media.
