The Higher Realm Film Festival is focused on content that will uplift and inspire the world. We strive to bring content to humanity that tells stories that matter. Stories that shine light on tough subjects and that bring awareness to things that need more attention. We are focused on uplifting the world, bringing back hope, being solution oriented, and through our festival, we want to give hope and inspire others to create the life of their dreams.

Our first year was incredible! The audiences left changed.
We ALL have a story, and many won't ever see or know the struggles of humankind, unless we have a platform to share these.
We are the portal to bring more JOY into the world. To bring films that matter. Stories that shift the perspective and uplift humanity.
Stories that expand the heart, heal, and allow those who are suffering to know that there IS hope, there is another way, and you CAN change anything.

This is the Festival where LOVE is the frequency, JOY is the answer, and aligning the heart is the goal.
Submit on here, or come along just to watch the magnificent films we showcase and mingle with our creatives and filmmakers. This is a Festival NOT to be missed!!

    This was an absolutely beautiful and friendly experience. The festival celebrated all films and filmmakers. Incredible details honoring each of our creations throughout the venue. I loved feeling as though I’d come “home” to be honored along side other talented story tellers. This festival was an integral and high vibrational experience. You could literally feel the energy radiating from pure hearts. It felt like a true soul family connection was ignited. Thank you for acknowledging my heart and my film that honors my Andy. Seeing “Becoming SonShine” on the big screen was beautiful. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
