New World Film Festival

IMDb Film Festival. Connecting Filmmakers with the Industry.

VERY IMPORTANT. We are not an online film festival. We are against online festivals. Our exclusive event is designed exclusively for film professionals.

What does this mean?

That instead of your project being seen by a general public. Your project will be seen only by professionals from the film industry. Film producers, directors, distributors and sales agents. We have an extensive network of more than 9,000 international buyers. This makes it possible to generate many new opportunities for your career.

Don't wait until the last deadline to register your project, since at each deadline we make rounds with distributors. In each term we meet with the distributors and present the best projects of the festival to obtain the maximum opportunities throughout the year.

In addition, we recognize the power of social media exposure in today's digital landscape. All projects registered in the main categories, including Best Short Film, Best Feature Film, Best Music Video, Best Documentary and Best Screenplay, will receive a free Instagram post. , improving its reach and visibility.

So why should you join the New World Film Festival? We believe that times are changing and it is no longer enough to show your film in a movie theater. As a filmmaker, you invest substantial resources on the festival circuit, but what do you really get in return? Some laurels for your Instagram profile? A screening with a tiny audience? Our goal is to transcend these limitations by actively facilitating connections between you and industry professionals who can have a significant impact on your career path.

What sets us apart from other festivals is our deliberate choice to accept a limited number of projects. In doing so, we ensure that every detail is meticulously attended to, providing personalized attention to each participating project. Accepting thousands of projects each year would compromise our ability to properly focus the work of each filmmaker. Instead, we prioritize quality over quantity, allowing us to serve as a trusted platform for your creative endeavors.

Additionally, we pride ourselves on our distribution-oriented approach, which means there are no restrictions on the year of production or territorial release of your projects. You can register as many projects as you like, without limits, allowing you to fully maximize the opportunities presented by the New World Film Festival.

In short, the New World Film Festival stands as an exceptional platform connecting filmmakers with the film industry. Dedicated to accredited professionals, our exclusive event guarantees exposure to Los Angeles growers and distributors and an extensive network of international buyers. We reject the notion of online festivals open to the public, prioritizing personalized connections and tangible results for our participants. Join us today and take the next step in your film career.
