Untold stories that we need to hear
Argo is now accepting submissions on #FilmFreeway to spotlight the untold stories around the world.
#Film has the power to affect a narrative on a global scale. Argo, a short film streaming platform, wants to utilize this power for positive advancement encouraging creators to share important stories that will have a social impact.
Argo encourages creators to have no reservations nor fear in their storytelling. What happened? What do we need to know? What is going to happen? Who is we? The audience. The world. Think investigative journalism. Think unheard voices or narratives that need amplifying. Submit your short film or a short film you know of that has moved you.
