This will be Wild Rover Film Festival's 2nd festival in 2024.
Wild Rover Film Festival is for the wanderer. Whether you're wandering around this world, another world, in the present, the future, or the past. Wherever you choose to wander, tell a story about it.
Wild Rover Film Festival was created by Theodoric Wells, a SAG-AFTRA actor & graduate of Tisch, School of the Arts, for the purpose of providing a platform for filmmakers from all around the world to showcase their films. Wild Rover Film Festival will take place in Tampa, Florida at Wild Rover Brewing Company. All screenings will be held in The Brewery, which seats 125 people with a 120" projector & a cinema-grade sound system.
Food & drink will be available for a full dinner theater experience. Networking happy hours will create an atmosphere for local & global filmmakers to connect over a pint of craft beer, or fresh Fish & Chips. Specifically, we will be hosting "Afternoon Teas" on each day where filmmakers & fans will get to chat over a cuppa and some scones. Each evening will be accompanied by a filmmaker Q&A & an awards ceremony.
Wild Rover Film Festival is accepting submissions for short & feature length films of any & all genres. There will be specialty categories for short & feature length Mockumentary films, British Film, & Veteran Film.
