This festival was founded by many independent filmmakers from all over the Southeast in an effort to make independent film more prevalent in smaller towns across the SouthEast and help foster connections between film-making professionals across the globe.

Mission

We are looking for quality story telling in all of our entries first and foremost, our judging is not based on the level of star, budget, or highest quality, rather the best indication of talent in filmmaking, music, or interactive presentation.  We want to give independent creative people the opportunity to have their work seen by audiences and connect with each other.  We do have special local categories and awards that highlight Southern films, music, and interactive content.
