  • Truly a unique festival. Nathan and Shelli love film and I was impressed with the quality of the work. The Q&A's were great as well and conducted after every screening with the filmmakers given a good 15 mins to speak about their film and answer questions.

    Thanks for having our film. I enjoyed the presentation and the longer than usual Q&A session! Not very often do short film directors get to speak at length about their films, process, and themes and this festival did just that for us.

  • We were honored that Sunlight was chosen and attended the last day. Wonderful interaction with filmmakers, audience and staff that gives me hope for film making a difference...I highly recommend this festival

  • Why Woodstock did not live up to the hype, the Woodstock Museum Film Festival most certainly did! What a blast to be playing in three different theatres on site, have a great and interested crowd, an energized Q&A with questions and thoughts I had never been asked, awesome hosts, and share another adventure with my ❤️ Susan Judy! A ton of fun and great Q&A with love and life! Ty Thank you Nathan, Terry, and Shelli!

    We were honoured to have our short film A Girl Called Elvis selected for this festival! Thanks to Nathan and Shelli. I wish that I couldn't attend in person, but I hope to in future.
