West Side Film Series (0)

Festival start: 30 March 2015      Festival end: 30 March 2015

Created by Jose Ruiz, Jr., the Co-Founder of the Manhattan Film Festival in NYC, as an opportunity to introduce his love for independent film into the city & community that he grew up in, the West Side Film Series is an opportunity to showcase independent cinema, on an ongoing basis (Twice per month), to an audience that is not typically afforded the opportunity to experience such quality artistic film. Located in St. Paul, MN -the West Side Neighborhood has been home to many immigrant communities, and was once dubbed, "The Ellis Island of the Midwest". Today, the neighborhood is home to a respectful, diverse community that has flourished through local business impact, and is continuing to evolve as a flourishing artistic town. The series will be open to all in proximity, including the booming Lowertown Arts Community! A great opportunity to showcase your film to a great audience to build buzz for your film. Proceeds will go to benefit Prodigy Sports, a local organization that provides quality athletic training opportunities to high school students from various communities.

With submission to this film series, films will also receive free submission to a film festival that will be announced shortly, to be held in beautiful Downtown St. Paul, recently named "The most romantic city in North America"!

Filmmakers will agree to submit a screening copy online and/or via mail to the address listed. If selected to screen, filmmaker will agree to send West Side Film Series final screening copy in DVD format listed in NTSC Region 0 or Region 1, and/or PAL Region 0 or Region 1.

By submitting this film, you allow West Side Film Series, it's director, and Prodigy Sports to screen your film and advertise screening of said film in regard to the West Side Film Series, as well as allowing said parties to screen film as desired for the period of one year as part of the ongoing film series. Note that not all films will be screened more than once. It is also acknowledged that should West Side Film Series and its managing parties be unable to screen your film immediately, you will grant them the right to screen at a later date, in a public or private venue of their choice as part of the West Side Film Series.
