The Kino Short Film Festival celebrates the art of short filmmaking by independent and student filmmakers in the Pacific Northwest, giving them a venue to share their work with an audience. Films ten minutes or less in any genre are accepted: narrative, documentary, animation, music videos, experimental. Each spring in Moscow, Idaho, we host filmmakers at the Kenworthy Performing Arts Centre, and now streaming online as well at www.kinofilmfest.org
We only accept work created by filmmakers from Idaho, Oregon, Montana, and Washington.
The festival is supported by the Kenworthy Performing Arts Centre, the University of Idaho and its FIlm & Television program, along with the School of Journalism and Mass Media.
This year's festival will be held on the evening of May 14th starting at 6:30 pm and can be viewed online at www.kinofilmfest.org
The jurors will recognize the following:
-Best Film

The audience will also have an opportunity to vote for their favorite film, which will be recognized as the Audience's Choice Award.
