neutral  philgoddard: I think it's more likely to be the first and third meanings in your Duden reference. You wouldn't really use a trailer for advertising.

agree  philgoddard: Yes, or pitches. I think it's bewerben in the sense of apply for, which could be either entry to the festival, or support from backers.

  -> Thanks, Phil.

agree  Kristina Cosumano (X): In this context I think submission rather than pitch; the latter has a more commercial ring to me.
