**Flexi's Film Festival**
Flexi's Film Festival is a semi-annual online with an end of the year live event held in Central Florida, specifically tailored for independent filmmakers aiming to introduce their creations to fans, film lovers, and fellow passionate filmmakers. This festival celebrates the spirit of indie cinema, often overshadowed by mainstream platforms, by offering them a unique live setting in the heart of Florida.
Every film selected for the festival will be distributed through Flexi's dedicated streaming service, further expanding the reach to a wider audience. Films of various lengths and genres that achieve Official Selection will compete for esteemed titles like 'Film of the Fest', 'Fan Fav Film of the Fest', and the 'Flexi Spirit Award.'
Our festival takes immense pride in its commitment to inclusivity. All selected films are automatically considered for the 'Grand Jury Choice' Awards across the listed categories below. We promise to watch every submission in its entirety, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation of your work. Honoring the dedication of filmmakers, we will engage in enriching conversations with the creators of each Officially Selected film. These dialogues, which may last up to 10 minutes, are transformed into videos available on the Flexi website, YouTube channel, and various social media platforms throughout the festival and beyond.
As we prepare to host our first edition, we invite filmmakers to present their creations spanning all genres. We welcome entries from both local and international talents, regardless of nationality.
