    Reedy Reels is one of our favorites festivals. Film makers are given great support by the very friendly staff. The venue is killer and the selection of films is wonderful. Best of all is that the festival is constantly working to fine-tune the experience for everyone involved. A great bang-for-your-buck festival !

    We had a great time at Reedy Reels this year in support of TRUCE and Grandpa - a first class facility and everyone was very supportive and helpful. The audience was engaged and really took an interest in the films and filmmakers. All of the films were great and enjoyable; it's also nice to see so much Carolina talent shine!

    Thank you, Reedy Reels, for being so welcoming to 20 local high school kids and their teacher who came to see our film, "Living on a Dollar a Day". We couldn't make it in person, but they said they had a great time. Best of luck and continued success to your festival!
