What is required for a movie to be considered Disaster themed?
If the theme of your film is a direct disaster-themed or if the first conflict that starts the chain of events involves a disaster, if the subject of the film has affected the masses, if the ongoing effects of a fictional or real disaster are the subject, if a documentary (documentary) is produced about a real disaster or its effects, if it covers at least one of these requirements, you can apply to the category appropriate to the structure of your film.
​
Disaster, any natural or human-generated calamitous event that produces great loss of human life or destruction of the natural environment, private property, or public infrastructure. A disaster may be relatively sudden, such as an earthquake or an oil spill, or it may unfold over a longer period, such as the effects of an ongoing pandemic or climatic disruption.
