NEW DATES: May 1 & 2, 2009 - Name change coming soon!



ABOUT THE FESTIVAL

We are sponsored by by the not-for-profit Mid America Filmmakers (MAF) group at www.midamericafilmmakers.org

 

The only independent film festival of its kind in Northern Indiana, this  festival is open to anyone who makes shorts or features, on video or film, including high school and college students.

We began this festival to give Midwest filmmakers a forum to screen their works and meet other regional filmmakers, but we also  show films from across the country and around the globe.

 

 

UPDATED 12/24/08

Fantastic news! We are in the process of becoming a bigger festival hosted by the City of South Bend in downtown's main convention center, the Century Center. We will also be sponsored by the Mid America Filmmakers.

To that end, we are extending our entry deadlines through January and moving the festival dates to May 1 & 2, 2009. More information to come.
