About JIMOT CM COMPETITION

The Okinawa International Movie Festival local origination project “JIMOT CM COMPETITION” enters its sixth year. This program seeks submissions from the general public of CMs on the topic of “With love for your town, the appeal of your town that you only know because you live there, and want the rest of the country to know”, and under this program, Yoshimoto entertainers and Yoshimoto staff will work together with the people in various places to make these CMs.
 Grand Prix prizes will be awarded to one of the 46 works from the prefectures from around the country, and one of the works from the 41 municipalities around Okinawa.
The “JIMOT CM COMPETITION” has garnered attention for its local revitalization effect. As we head towards our 8th time, we look forward to even greater growth rooted in the local region throughout the year.

It has also been decided that in addition to Japan, an “Overseas Edition” of work will be screened, filled with the local charms of Asian and ASEAN countries.
This year, entertainers living in Taiwan, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam will produce CMs under the Asian Edition “I want to live in your town Project” (or “Entertainers Living in Asia” for short).
