Katonah Classic Stage Film Festival

The 5th Annual Katonah Classic Stage Film Festival welcomes you to the picturesque town of Bedford, NY, the arts hub of Northern Westchester County and only an hour north of NYC! KCSFF began as a place to screen short films, in person, when the Covid pandemic prevented nearly all public gatherings. Partnering with Bedford Playhouse, we created an outdoor experience for audiences that kept cinema alive while keeping the public safe. Since then KCSFF has grown to become the go-to festival for the region, catering to filmmakers and audiences of all ages. We now present films both outdoors under the stars and indoors in a state-of-the-art cinema. We accept short films from all over the globe and from any genre. This year we have expanded our short film categories to accommodate our growing kaleidoscope of submissions. These categories are Narrative Drama, Narrative Comedy, Documentary, Animation, Made in Westchester County, NY, and Student*.

The festival will be held at Bedford Playhouse, a historic, nonprofit cinema in Bedford, NY.
