A student division of the University of New Orleans Department of Film and Theatre presents the 14th edition of the UNO Film Festival.
After a year hiatus, we are back to celebrate the achievements of student filmmakers and emerging professionals across the country. In lieu of hosting the festival at the Robert E. Nims theater in the University’s Performing Arts Center this year, we will be hosting the festival predominantly online. This new, digital festival format will allow us to explore a multitude of ways to share stories with broader audiences.
The UNO Film Fest is the largest student run film festival in the state of Louisiana. The festival showcases student and emerging voices from around the country that reflect the values we hold as students at the University of New Orleans. We value films that enrich our lives through diverse stories representative of our culturally vibrant city and nation.
The festival dates are May 20-22.
The festival will award films and filmmakers that exhibit high quality work in various categories including, but not limited to: Narrative Short, Documentary Short, Experimental Short, Emerging Professional Short, and Graduate Thesis recognition.
Previous awards and packages from past sponsors have included nationally recognized organizations, equipment rental houses, and post production and film production assistance.
