Welcome to our Winter Season that runs Monthly from January thru March 2025.
NewFilmmakers NY is New York's longest running year round Film Festival. Throughout it's twenty-eight year run NewFilmmakers has provided a platform for first time and veteran filmmakers.
We have taken an exciting new direction with NewFilmmakers called NewFilmmakersPlus which will move our festival into the digital age and allow us to reach international audiences.
While theaters have been closed, our online audiences have greatly exceeded those in theaters. With NewFilmmakers Plus we have added the missing audience participation to our online screenings.
Now filmmakers, cast, and crew as well as audience members can create interactive video screening rooms while watching a film. Just by pushing the START A GROUPVIEW button to the right of the film they can invite up to six people to talk about the film in a video conference. It’s almost like watching side-by-side in real life — without having to share your popcorn.
In addition our films will now be available for two weeks and screenable any time of the day instead of only one night. This allows more people to see our films and makes it easier to set up a screening event with friends and colleagues. As requested we are switching to filmmaker hosted files utilizing unlisted YouTube links which will eliminate the need to transcode and to send us large files as well as giving filmmakers control over their film.
In today’s world online screenings give filmmakers worldwide audiences instead of limited local ones. With NewFilmmakers Plus filmmakers not only reach worldwide audiences but can interact with them as they would at a traditional theater.

4ª Autêntica Mostra Cinemas do Brasil busca filmes sobre cinemas de rua do país.
A Mostra Cinemas do Brasil homenageia o Cinema Rio Branco de Nazaré/BA, um dos mais antigos do Brasil em funcionamento, e apresenta um panorama de filmes que buscam homenagear os cinemas de rua do país e que propõem uma discussão sobre a atual situação desses monumentos arquitetônicos que, em sua maioria, antes mesmo da pandemia, encontravam-se de portas fechadas e sem nenhum tipo de reparo ou manutenção.
Busca-se exibir filmes que retratem ou dialoguem com cinemas de rua do Brasil, frequentadores desses espaços, cineclubismo e com o setor exibidor brasileiro. Para a “4ª Autêntica Mostra Cinemas do Brasil: Um Retrato dos nossos tempos”, contemplaremos também filmes que evidenciam diversos modos de ver, a preservação audiovisual e o advento de novas tecnologias exibidoras como o videocassete e posteriormente a decadência das videolocadoras, além de filmes que retratam as plataformas de streaming e o sistema Drive-In, únicas alternativas no passado recente.
Em três edições, a Autêntica Mostra Cinemas do Brasil já exibiu mais de 70 filmes sobre cinemas de rua do Brasil nos formatos presencial, virtual e em televisões públicas. A curadoria da 4ª Autêntica Mostra Cinemas do Brasil (Um retrato dos nossos tempos), será realizada por Eudaldo Monção Jr. (@MemorabiliaFilmes / @canoviajero), também idealizador e coordenador do projeto e diretor dos filmes ‘Cine Rio Branco’, ‘Recordações de ontem’, ‘Os cinemas do Brasil em tempos de pandemia’ e ‘Cinemas de rua de Aracaju’.
As exibições da quarta edição da Mostra Cinemas do Brasil, serão realizadas em diversas cidades brasileiras, de forma gratuita, em espaços culturais do país tais como: cinemas, cineclubes, escolas, pontos de cultura, bibliotecas, entre outros espaços, ou ainda no formato Drive-In com apoio de festivais parceiros. Os filmes serão exibidos também no formato virtual através do site da mostra www.mostracinemasdobrasil.com e em programas especiais em TV ‘s públicas brasileiras.
