The Foothills Film Festival will take place February 18, 19 & 20, 2021. In its inaugural year, the Foothills Film Festival is excited to spotlight indie films that display storytelling in a unique, diverse and tasteful manner. This festival encourages emerging filmmakers with connections to North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, Florida and Alabama to submit their short films, which will be judged by our esteemed panel. The Foothills Film Festival welcomes works from all categories so long as they abide by the guidelines listed under the “Rules and Regulations” section outlined below.
The FFF focuses on films from or about the Southeast that captivate both the audience and the judges. The FFF is committed to creating an environment that encourages emerging film makers as well as those who have dedicated themselves to film-making over the years.
This festival will be one to remember and will feature short films from multiple categories. Each filmmaker selected will receive four (4) tickets to the event night of their choice .
The Foothills Film Festival will be held at The LeGrand Center in Shelby, NC. Should social distancing due to Covid-19 still be in effect, The Foothills Film Festival should not be impacted because of the vast amount of space the venue provides.
An "Award Of Excellence" will be given to the top films.
