Any upgrade to your already purchased pass will be the difference between the current cost of the pass you wish to upgrade to and the pass you purchased.

Currently, Cinetopia only accepts submissions for our Detroit Voices Short Film Competition. If you are a Michigan filmmaker with a film under 30 minutes, we hope that you will submit your work.

We’re aiming to release our full schedule in early July. Date TBD.

We sure think so! We do hire seasonal employees to help us each year with the festival. Jobs are posted as they become available (generally between February and April) so it’s a good idea check out our jobs tab here and join our email list.
