Our June 14th, 2025 event will be held in-person like in 2024.
We were a top 100 festival over 25 times before in Oct 2022, Sep 2022, Jan 2022, Jul 2021 through Dec 2021, Jan 2020 through Nov 2020, and Aug 2019 through Oct 2019.
Tired of being overlooked by fests? Searching for one that truly celebrates independent work and the dedication it requires? Then you've found the right place! While Hollywood keeps regurgitating the same junk over and over, indie filmmakers strive to do something different. Something original. They may not always be successful but at least they tried. Passion projects are the most important kind, and we're here to help. We'll be recognizing different films with awards, and we'll be screening chosen films on Saturday, June 14th, 2025, in Apopka, Florida. Don't worry if your film didn't have a huge budget. We even have a category for micro budget features. No production date rules. Films from any year can be submitted.
Our sister festival is the Indie Suspense Horror Sci-Fi Film Festival that runs in October. We have different groups of judges for both but the same management team.
Best Short and Best Feature in different genres with special awards for Most Fun, Most Creative, Best Director, Best Cinematography, Audience Favorite, our Spooky Award, etc.
