An international film festival celebrating independent, art house, and risk-taking filmmaking across all genres, with live screenings of short form and long form works occurring quarterly in Hollywood, CA.

2025 Screenings are scheduled for May, September and December. Submission is ongoing -- if your film is accepted to the festival you will be informed of your screening date and time. Due to the nature of the screenings throughout the year films may be curated and scheduled seasonally based on the thematic programming of each event.

FactoryFest will accept submissions in 2025 for May, September and December screenings.
We accept content across all genres -- narrative, documentary, music video, essay and experimental films are all welcome -- we love drama, comedy, sci-fi, fantasy, action, horror, you name it. The festival's focus is on risk-taking content across all genres.
