LFN Awards, brought to you by "LFN Network" one of the world's leading film community supporting unrepresented creatives.
LFN is proud to welcome submissions from creatives across the world. We showcase and celebrate the art of storytelling through the works of emerging and established filmmakers/storytellers, and connecting creators with a strong network of talents and opportunities. Our mission is to support creators and inspire the world to believe in themselves.
WE stand for fairness and equality. Whether showcasing the best filmmakers around the world, we take our commitment to fair representation seriously. We’re committed to support diversity, meaning whatever your background, we won’t exclude anyone based on gender, race, ability, sexual orientation, or otherwise. You’ll be welcomed here.
