Yes, celluloid may be gone, though prints on celluloid still exist. I 
have seen "physical film," which is perhaps better, though it's not 
clear how many people would know what it means. Same could be said of 
"celluloid."

It would be interesting to know if the festival will accept works shot on video but printed on celluloid, and designed that way, for the look of, for example, Pixelvision on celluloid. Such things exist.
