The 7th annual SOMA Film Festival will once again be a spectacle of independent films, the people who make them, and a community who supports them.
We hold the majority of our screenings in the cozy, and community atmosphere of The Woodland, a beautiful century old theater hall situated steps from the mid-town direct train from NYC, and smack dab in the middle of picturesque Maplewood, NJ which is often referred to as "Brooklyn West."
We project your film on a 16 x 9 screen with a state of the art projector and sound system that rivals any festival or movie theater.
The festival will span 3 days from October 21-23.
Comparable to other festivals of our stature, SOMA FF has made entry fees low to give filmmakers an opportunity to submit and hopefully present their work regardless of their financial situation(s).
Filmmakers who submit and are accepted will receive 2 VIP Passes for all the film programs, the welcome party, and guest speakers. Those who submit and are not accepted will be provided 1 VIP Pass, a $100 value.
We have had 11 films gain distribution from our festival which we are supremely proud.
"Best Of" awards are given in the following categories -
Feature Length Documentary/Narrative
Short Length Documentary/Feature
Screenplay / Narrative Feature
Screenplay / Narrative Short
